The Julia language is a proven technology for technical computing. So it is only natural for people to build engineering-related tools on top of it. In this workshop, we'll discuss our Dyad platform for system modeling and how this utilizes both Julia and ModelingToolkit to deliver Scientific Machine Learning (SciML) to engineers in industry.
In this workshop, participants will be able to do hands-on works using our Dyad platform. Our Dyad agent has proven remarkably effective at flattening the learning curve for Dyad, SciML and Julia. This means that participants will be able to jump directly into solving interesting problems with these tools.
Dyad provides system modeling capabilities that will allow participants to create system models from nearly every engineering domain (and systems that span domains as well). From there, they can perform a wide variety of analyses on their models (steady-state analysis, transient analysis, linearization, etc.) to answer important engineering questions. Adventurous participants will even be able to create their own custom analyses directly in Julia (with the excellent support of our agent).
We will guide participants through the process of building models graphically and with the agent. We will then demonstrate how they can use the Dyad language to add new primitives and components for describing both continuous and discrete behavior. They can then integrate these seamlessly into their system models alongside the extensive collection of components available in our standard libraries. Our agent will be there every step of the way to help users perform research, create visualizations, build Dyad models and write regression tests.
We'll provide some exercises for users to work through during the workshop. But users are not only free to explore on their own, but encouraged to do so. Our agent can act as your personal tutor during the workshop. It can answer questions about any part of the Dyad platform and create examples of models and visualizations to help get you started.
I am currently the Senior Directory of Product Management for JuliaSim at JuliaHub. I have built my whole career on my passion for modeling, simulation and software and before coming to work for JuliaHub I had the privilege of working on engineering software at companies like Ford, LMS, Dassault Systèmes and Ricardo.
I am currently Senior Lead – Modeling and Simulation at JuliaHub. With over 25 years of modeling and simulation experience, I enjoy working with customers to develop software solutions to solve complex multi-domain system simulation problems. Prior to joining JuliaHub, I worked at Ford Motor Company, several engineering consulting companies, and most recently Modelon.
