Introduction

Overview

BondGraphs.jl is a Julia implementation of the bond graph framework. Bond graphs are an energy-based modelling framework that describe energy flow through a physical system, and are especially useful for modelling multi-scale or multi-physical systems.[1]

This package constructs a symbolic graph model of a physical system, which can then be converted into a system of differential equations. BondGraphs.jl includes specific methods that interact with the wider Julia modelling ecosystem, including ModelingToolkit.jl, Catalyst.jl, and Plots.jl.

Installation
