Modules – general
● Organize model in separate units
● Hierarchical Layout of module in tree-like structure
(similar to layers)
● Connection of modules through boundary
conditions/link elements (typically one level above)
● Modules contain mesh, boundary conditions, etc.
and may also contain other modules
● Each module has its own namespace

Modules in Animator
● Full support for general tree● References by modulepath● Modules have names und IDs● Default-Module
● References are interpreted relative to it● Access by full path available everywhere
● Internal IDs● Unique numbering of complete model

Modules - Commandsyntax
● Path specification: bracketed list like in command targets● Simple item reference:ide pid [Car][Chassis]:5000
● Item referenz with slot:ide pid 1[Car][Chassis]:5000
● In target definition:s[1[Car][Chassis]]:ide pid 5000

Modules – Command syntax (2)
● Special character for root module: /
● Default module: mod def <Path> i.e.:mod def [/][Car][Chassis]
ide dst pid 5000 pid [/][Barrier]:5000
Distance will be measured between[/][Car][Chassis]:5000
and[/][Barrier]:5000
● Root is initially default → in case of a single
module: ⇒ no changes in workflow

Modules – Command syntax (3)
● Default behaviour: Include all submodules
● Reference without submodule: append empty brackets []
mod def [/][Car][Chassis][Wheels][Front]
ide pid 5000 → 5000, [Left]:5000, [Right]:5000
mod def [/][Car][Chassis][Wheels][Front][]
