In addition to the libraries included with Extend, Extend+BPR, and Extend+Manufacturing, some Extend users have developed specialized libraries for distribution. These Third Party Libraries and their Developers are listed below.
C-CASLab (Classical Control Analysis & Simulation Lab)
Description A system of libraries developed for the field of Control Engineering. With C-CASLab the user can construct models of classical control systems in many disciplines, simulate operation of the models, and analyze model properties. The user-interface of the library is designed for maximum flexibility while minimizing changes in the model structure.
Applications Control systems; mainly in the automotive, aerospace, and consumer products industries. For example: Thermostat control settings which turn ovens on and off; Hydraulic brake systems on trucks; servo systems such as steering mechanisms and their effect on other parts; inner workings of machines; etc.

ControlWare
Description For designing, analyzing, and simulating dynamic system and feedback controllers. ControlWare includes classic control system analysis techniques: time response, frequency response, phase and gain margin readouts, and root locus. These techniques are in the form of virtual instruments that are attached to the system, as in a circuit tester, that would provide classic control system criteria. It features both linear and nonlinear analysis.
Applications Control systems; mainly in the automotive, aerospace, and consumer products industries. For example: Thermostat control settings which turn ovens on and off; Hydraulic brake systems on trucks; servo systems such as steering mechanisms and their effect on other parts; inner workings of machines; etc.

NeuroLab
Description Libraries of blocks for artificial neural network computation and its applications. NeuroLab includes both educational blocks to assist in the training of modeling neural networks and advanced blocks for more robust applications. Various types of networks that can be modeled with NeuroLab include: Hopfield, perceptron, competitive, recurrent, and multi-layer feed-forward networks. It is ideal for those involved in image processing, data classification, future prediction, adaptive control, dynamics identification optimization, and content addressable memory.
Applications Adaptive control and robotics, nonlinear system identification, image processing, data classification, content addressable memory, optimization.

Voigt fx
Description Libraries for analytical chemistry; including optics, electronic signal processing, instrumentation, spectrometrics, etc. Implements the entire Jones and Mueller calculi and simultaneously models signal and noise. These libraries are used to evaluate and compare published and/or proposed spectrometric techniques, facilitate review of research papers and proposals, teach instrumental analysis, and the design of instrumentation.
Applications Optics, electronic signal processing, instrumentation, and spectrometrics.
