FlowStoneBased on our record, OpenModelica seems to be more popular. It has been mentiond 6 times since March 2021. We are tracking product recommendations and mentions on various public social media platforms and blogs. They can help you identify which product is more popular and what people think of it.
I have used https://openmodelica.org/. It's another one of those "invest substantial time understanding what they are doing, and you will likely be rewarded." Simple things are simple, but I found it took longer than I would have like to bang out e.g. a PID algo with a particular motor and load. If you want to try this, buy the book, and follow it to the end. Then keep learning, as you build more and more... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
If the robot simulation doesn't need to pick up stuff or take into account changing contacts with other objects you can use Modelica's Multibody library which you can run for free with OpenModelica. This will be more accurate than other simulators because modelica can analytically solve the dynamics equations. You don't need to write them either just to connect blocks for various components.

OpenModelica consists of a combination of graphical and written components to simulate dynamic systems. I don’t know what control system feature set might be available. AMESIM is a more extensive paid tool that operates on the same Modelica modeling language. IIRC, at least Simuscape operates on Modelica under the hood. Source: about 1 year ago
It shouldn't be too difficult to model in Modelica. You could approximate the pendula in 1D with masses on springs or just use Modelica's multibody library. Source: about 1 year ago
Modelica is a good start, at the very least in showing how to break a complex machine with many physical phenomena into components. Modeling accuracy and ease are generally opposed. Https://openmodelica.org/. Source: almost 2 years ago
LabVIEW - LabVIEW offers many of the functions you'd find in a traditional script-based programming language presented in a more intuitive visual interface ideal fo engineering.
Circuit Simulator - Animated electronic circuit simulator using ideal components to visualize voltage and current.
myOpenLab - MyOpenLab is a platform for finished elements (program components) that can be linked together.
Pspice - OrCAD PSpice technology provides the best, high-performance circuit simulation to analyze and refine your circuits, components, and parameters before committing to layout and fabrication
PyLab_Works - PyLab_Works is a free and open source replacement for LabView + MatLab, written in pure Python.
Oregano - oregano - An electrical engineering tool for GNOME
