Today I want to talk about variables, needed by a Simulink model, that are function of other variables.Let's take the simple example of a right triangle:For most Simulink users, if you have a model... read more >>
Today I want to share a simple trick I recently recommended to a user who was struggling with retrieving error messages from simulations.The Problem What this user described is that, when simulating... read more >>
In a previous post, I introduced a model simulating the exponential spread of a phenomenon like COVID-19. With more and more talks in the news about deconfinement plans, I thought it would be... read more >>
If you are attentive to details, you might have noticed that in MATLAB R2019b, we removed the First-Order Hold block from the Discrete section of the Simulink Library browser.
At the same time, we... read more >>
Today I decided to revisit a topic I covered a few years ago: loading discrete signals in a simulation.
Let's see what has been added in the last few years to help with the potential problems you... read more >>
After my last post on FMU import and export, someone asked me if exporting a Simulink model to an FMU was a good way to hide the model and protect intellectual property.
The answer is: No!
An FMU is... read more >>
Today I want to share a useful tip for importing signals from Excel into a simulation.
From Spreadsheet block
In case you were not aware, since R2015b, Simulink has offered the From Spreadsheet... read more >>
I posted about variants in the past, but things have changed a lot since then, so I thought it would be a good idea to review the options available for variants in R2018b.
Variant Subsystem

Sometimes, I hear about a plan for a new feature without immediately realizing its impact... but it ends up fundamentally changing the way I use Simulink. Quick Block Insert is one such feature.
If... read more >>
Did you know that it is possible to visualize the calling of Simulink Functions using the Sequence Viewer? Let's see how that works and in what type of situations it can be particularly useful.
The... read more >>
