Eikos Java beta version available (June 23 2010)

We have for some time been working on a stand-alone version of Eikos that does not require Matlab.

An early beta version is now available for download in the downloads section. Eikos Java will be free of charge while being beta tested.

5.0.78 Update of Ecolego (June 23 2010)

This update fixes minor bugs related to the library and copy/paste.

5.0.66 Update of Ecolego (May 25 2010)

New features:

  • Web proxy host and port can be specified for when retrieving updates. In most companies all web traffic is directed via a proxy, and this has prevented people from receiving automatic updates. To edit the proxy host and port, go to File|Preferences and open the Startup page.
  • Off-line help bundled with Ecolego, so that the help documents can be browsed without connection to the internet
  • Search field for help in the main toolbar
  • New block: discrete event. This block should be used in combination with conditions, so that the solver discovers important time points in the simulation.
  • The recorder block has been updated to take two arguments rather than one for reset/record.
  • The recorder block has been updated to support calculating the mean value of a given output.
  • The model window now displays icons for adding empty cells in its title bar.
  • The results window displays icons for the outputs that matches the icons in the project tree. This makes it easier to see which type of object is behind the output.
  • The information window now displays graphs for lookup tables.

5.0.45 Update of Ecolego (April 23 2010)

New features:

Linear incrementing timeseries
This is an alternative to the normal linear time series. Instead of specifying the number of time points to create, specify an increment. This makes it possible to, for instance, create a time series where output is given for each day, independent of what the start and end time is.
Min and max available options for probabilistic data
When creating an index table you can now ask for the min, time for min, max or time for max for statistics from a probabilistic simulation. For instance, show me the time for the maximum mean value, or the minimum of the 5th percentile.

New solver
A new solver, RADAU5 is available.
Solver descriptions improved
The descriptions for all solvers and the situations in which they are used have been improved.
Quick block create
To quickly create a block in the Blocks window:
  1. Enter the name of the block in the search field.
  2. Select the type of block in the type drop down list.
  3. Select a sub-system from the sub-system drop down list.
  4. Select a category from the category drop down list.
  5. Click the New button.
Debug mode for simulations
The debug mode has been improved to not only report statistics from the simulation, but to also interrupt the simulation if any calculation is NaN or Infinity. An error message will report which block has caused the problem. Debug mode can be set from the advanced page in the simulation settings window.
General variables available in player
There is a new screen called "Options" in Ecolego Player for selecting targets for general variables.

Ecolego Annual Workshop (April 7th 2010)

We would like to invite you to the annual Ecolego workshop in Stockholm.

Agenda

  • Day 1,2: Crash course in Ecolego usage. Basic training for people that have not participated in earlier Ecolego workshop training or feel like they need to refresh their knowledge.

  • Day 3: Training in all new features of Ecolego 5. Become an expert in unit checking, building libraries and in committing projects to version control.

  • Day 4: Presentation of Ecolego use-cases. By workshop delegates and Facilia staff. Have you been involved in an interesting application of Ecolego? Let us know and you can present your work this day.

  • Day 5: Problem solving and customer specific assistence. Bring your modelling headaches and questions and we will solve them together.

Dates

We suggest the following two alternative dates.

May 24th-28th

June 7th-11th

If you are interested in joining the workshop, please let us know the dates for which you are available. You can select the dates here.

Last day to register

Please let us know before April 30th if you wish to participate.
