In R2013b, it is possible to specify joint motion in SimMechanics Second Generation models. In this post, I will use a simple pendulum with internal friction and subject to gravity to highlight... 続きを読む >>

We had some fun in our last post about the Hyperloop open source transportation system, but we didn't get much into the specifics. This week we begin to move things forward. Before beginning to... 続きを読む >>

Since it was released in August, the Hyperloop proposal by Elon Musk generated a lot of interest. Reactions were both positive and negative. As you can imagine, it also triggered a lot of discussions... 続きを読む >>

In the last post on MATLAB System block, I tried to provide a basic introduction to System Objects in MATLAB and Simulink environments. At the end, I finished with a quick example illustrating that... 続きを読む >>

This week I am happy to welcome guest bloggers Charu Fadnavis and Erman Korkut to introduce the new slLinearizer interface from Simulink Control Design. linearize vs. slLinearizer If you... 続きを読む >>

I am recently visited the MathWorks Japan office and learned about interesting work done by my colleague Hitoshi Takeshita. In his MATLAB Central submission Euler–Lagrange equation, Hitoshi... 続きを読む >>

Have you done something super-cool in Simulink?Can you make a short video of it and share it on YouTube?Are you a student? If you have answered yes to these questions, then you might be able to win... 続きを読む >>

In R2013b, you will notice a new block in the Simulink Library Browser: The MATLAB System block. System Object Before looking at the MATLAB System block, let's looks at the evolution of... 続きを読む >>

MATLAB R2013b is live for download on MathWorks.com. Here is a list of Simulink-related features I find particularly interesting: Simulink MATLAB System block: My favorite new feature in... 続きを読む >>

Last week I helped a user implementing an iterative algorithm in Simulink using the While Iterator Subsystem. I thought it would be interesting to share this technique. Example Iterative... 続きを読む >>
