Gnans is a useful tool to simulate complex sistems. I actually use it to
simulate an induction motor with a non linear controler + flux estimator
+ Rotor resistance estimator. The "problem" with it is that it does not
have a graphical interface to introduce the model, but a language to
describe your model (similar to C). This model is compiled to a loadable
module that is attached to the integration routines in the simulation,
resulting in a very fast simulation time. Another advantage is that you
can easily introduce C code into the model, resulting in a very flexible
environment. In my case I describe the motor in Gnans language and the
controllers are written in C. These controllers are the same that I use
to control the motor in real time using RT-Linux.

If you need more info drop my a line.
