This package contains types to represent SI units and (some) non-SI units used in models of social and ecological systems.
each (#) for counting entities and USD ($) as a monetary unit, are permitted.yrCal for a mean Gregorian calendar year, are especially useful in economic and ecological models.each or other non-standard base units, and times can be entered using exact day counts. Modelica as a language is constantly evolving, so hopefully, some of the innovations this library introduces might find their way into the mainstream. A tentative proposal has been made to the language group.Tutorial.UnitsInBusinessSimulations
