This case study presents the model of an ideal trebuchet. Following the object-oriented modeling paradigm of Modelica; the trebuchet is composed out of ideal elements that belong to a planar mechanical library. The corresponding system of DAEs has index 3. During simulation; the model undergoes also various structural changes that manipulate the number of continuous-time state variables. Furthermore; elastic and inelastic collisions need to be modeled by force impulses. The model is provided in Sol; a derivative language of Modelica; specially designed for research in variables structure systems.
