Dassault makes model acquisition

Dassault Systèmes has acquired Modelon, experts in model based engineering. Model-based systems engineering is an important facet of defining, imagining and shaping virtual products and user experiences that mimic future ones in the real world.


Modelon proprietary, multi-physics modular and reusable content—based on the Modelica open standard modeling language—brings industries beyond digital mock up to deliver functional mock up, transforming the engineering and experimentation of connected vehicles. From electric power storage to electric power distribution, its portfolio delivers a unified picture of complex product subsystem interaction and performance, throughout the design process as well as during optimal system operations. This accelerates virtual product development and ensures the relevance and quality of transportation and mobility industry projects.

"Since 2009, our industry-proven content implements the latest advances in Modelica tools and standards and, as a result, has enabled major industry milestones," said Johannes Gerl, CEO, Modelon GmbH. "As part of Dassault Systèmes, we can expand the reach and impact of our assets to inspire electrified and ecologic product development that will be emblematic of the bright future of experience-based systems engineering."
