Main document:

The main document related to BlockCompiler (BC) is the pdf report "Discrete-Time Physics-Based Modeling – A Block-Based Multi-Paradigm Approach with Applications to Audio and Acoustics", which  describes the methodology of physics-based modeling, the use of BlockCompiler, and gives many case studies of physical system modeling in BlockCompiler. It is an evolving report, being extended continuously along with new case studies and theoretical development.

Each new version of the document "Discrete-Time Physics-Based Modeling – A Block-Based Multi-Paradigm Approach with Applications to Audio and Acoustics" is linked from the page of version distributions, see page Software.
