A schematic of the 3M approach for modeling coupled systemsThis open source Modelica library contains an integrated modeling framework and componentmodels for designing coupled energy, transportation, and communication systems.Theframework features amulti-level, multi-layer, multi-agent (3M) approach in order to enable flexible modeling of the interconnected systems. Various componentand system-level models are included as the testbed of future SCCs in order to assess the impact of infrastructure interdependencies during typicaloperation.This modeling framework can be further extended for various modeling purposes and use cases, such as dynamic modeling and optimization, resilience analysis, and integrated decision making in future connected communities.
