β¦ Synopsis
ESL is a continuous-system simulation language (CSSL) which is used for simulating the behavior of dynamic systems. ESL offers a number of features which are not commonly found in CSSLs. It can be operated as an interpreter (convenient in the development phase) or as a translator to FORTRAN (more efficient execution of production runs). It incorporates special features for describing and processing discontinuities and for supporting the modeling of digital (discrete) components. It supports distributed simulation and is capable of interfacing to other software packages in complex applications. ESL is useful in courses addressing dynamics and control, differential equations, and simulation methods. Several examples of its use are described ranging from very simple to advanced.

Like many subjects taught to engineering students, the teaching of system dynamics typically has been based on a traditional didactic approach. However, there appears to be a shift away from the traditional approach to teaching system dynamics toward alternative methods of delivery such as problem-b
The paper presents a multi-index variable time step method for the integration of the equations of motion of constrained multibody systems in descriptor form. The basis of the method is the augmented Lagrangian formulation with projections in index-3 and index-1. The method takes advantage of the be
