The Functional Mock-up Interface (FMI) is an open standard for model exchange and co-simulation of dynamic models on the system and component level. FMI addresses a critical pain point in model-based systems engineering: the ability to share models between tools, and to deploy models in an easy-to-use way to development engineers. FMI is supported by more than 60 commercial simulation tools.
The FMI Add-In for Excel® provides powerful support for FMI in Microsoft Excel. FMI Add-In enables efficient and customizable analysis model-based workflows in a spread-sheet environment, with all data management and visualization capabilities of Microsoft Excel and Visual Basic at hand.
The FMI Add-in for Excel® enables steady-state and dynamic simulation of physical models integrated in a spreadsheet environment. Batch simulations and parameter sweeps are accessible through easy-to-use functions that enable users to quickly get up to speed with sophisticated model analyses.
- Allows users to exploit state-of-the-art physical modeling tools within an easy-to-access Microsoft Excel® environment
- Enables parameter sweeps and sensitivity analysis that can provide insights into the impact of component variation on system behavior early in the design cycle
- Provides simulation results within standard Excel spreadsheets, enabling organizations to quickly and easily exchange information among all shareholders in the enterprise
- Maintains flexibility and consistency through the FMI standard.
