This week, I am happy to welcome guest blogger Hao Chen who will describe how Simscape Power Systems can be used to simulate the world's longest (3324 km) Ultra High Voltage DC (± 1100 kV) transmission system with the largest transmission capacity (24000 MW) in China.... read more >>

In the United States, Thanksgiving weekend is probably the weekend where the roads are the busiest. For those of you who got stuck in traffic to visit family and friends this past weekend, I thought I should share one of my favorite new feature in R2017b: The enhanced highlighting to... read more >>

You know what I did this weekend? Yes, as the title of this post says, I deployed custom flight control software to my Parrot Rolling Spider Minidrone... read more >>

A long time ago, Seth wrote a post showing how to count the number of blocks in a model, including referenced models. At that time, using the functions find_mdlrefs to find all the referenced models and running sldiagnostics on each of them was the way to go.... read more >>

Last week I described how to model a box on a moving table using Simulink subsystems as Stateflow state.... read more >>

Today I want to highlight a new feature that makes continuous-time modeling in Stateflow clearer and more powerful: Simulink Subsystems as States.... read more >>

MATLAB R2017b has recently been released. For this first post about R2017b, I want to highlight a feature that I think most of you will find very useful: The Simulation Manager... read more >>

This week I discovered a super useful a feature of Simulink Projects.... read more >>

Some time ago, I wrote a blog post about how to implement a custom valve for the Simscape Hydraulic domain. Today I am happy to welcome guest bloggers Erin McGarrity and Ruth-Anne Marchant who will describe how to implement a similar check valve, but for the Simscape Gas domain.... read more >>

Today I want to describe a feature that is super useful, but not known enough: Logging states activity and data in Stateflow. ... read more >>
