Abstract
Modelica is a powerful language for describing the behavior of dynamic systems. At the heart of any model are mathematical equations. We begin our discussion of Modelica by showing how simple systems of differential equations can be expressed using Modelica. The expression of differential equations is the most basic example of Modelica's capabilities. Subsequent chapters will use increasingly complex models to demonstrate how more advanced features help model detailed physical systems, manage system complexity and promote reuse of models.
