Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

1.2.1 Installing and Setting up OpenModelica

Course subject(s) Module 1. Introduction to OpenModelica

In the video, the lecturer says week 4. This is because we had initially planned to launch the IEPG1x and IEPG2x courses as a single course. But later, we decided to release them as two separate courses. Since this lecture was initially part of week 4 of the combined course, the lecturer says week 4 in a module 1 lecture.

Please ignore what is said in the transcripts, as there is nothing to worry, you are on the right page and haven’t missed anything.
