Tim,
the articles about modelling mechanical devices were from www.intusoft.com,
e.g. have a look at http://www.intusoft.com/articles/relaycd4.pdf. If you
search google and take the links you do not even have to register at
intusoft to view the documents.
BTW, have also a look at the math.lib in the protel sim.ddb.
