A system for generating three-dimensional models of a physical environment such as a room. In some cases, the system may utilize a two-dimensional floor, room, or house plan to generate, close and/or orthogonalize wall segments. The system may then generate a three-dimensional model by projecting the wall segments into a three-dimensional space and inserting objects.

Systems and methods automatically rescale an original electric motor model so that it models an electric motor of a different size. The original electric motor model may be coupled to a motor controller model, and the systems and methods may also rescale the original motor controller model to produce a rescaled motor controller model matched to the rescaled electric motor model. The original electric motor model may include motor parameters and motor lookup tables, and the original motor controller model may include controller parameters and controller lookup tables. Rescaling factors indicating the size of the new electric motor being modeled may be received, and ratios may be computed as a function of the rescaling factors. Original motor parameters and controller parameters may be rescaled based on the ratios. Original motor lookup tables and controller lookup tables may be reshaped based on the ratios.
