SIMULATION LANGUAGE TKSL/ORCAD

The created simulation language TKSL/386 is a very powerful computing tool for finding accurate numerical solutions of differential equations. The next version of the simulation language TKSL/ORCAD is based on a graphic interface. The graphic interface transforms a graphic representation (graphic symbols for describing real-existing systems) into an equivalent textual representation. The graphic editor that has been chosen is a part of a system ORCAD .

The analogue diagram (Fig.18.1) solving the system of equations (53),(54),(55) is well-known in the theory of analogue and hybrid computers.

  y1'= z             y1(0)=0                                 (53)
  z' = y2             z(0)=2                                 (54)
  y2 =-y1.                                                   (55)

The analogue diagram (Fig.18.1) consists of two integrators (with predefined initial conditions) and one invertor. The integrators and invertor are among the basic elements of a specially created library of the simulation language TKSL/ORCAD ( the library consists of integrators, invertors, summers, function generators, multipliers, dividers, blocks of transfer functions, nonlinear blocks and blocks defined by users). When the simulation language TKSL/ORCAD is used, the diagram (Fig.18.1) must be plotted on the screen (according to the rules of the system ORCAD). After the program is started, a source code identical with the source code of the language TKSL/386 is automatically generated.
