Since R2010a, the Simulink Library includes a block named Integrator, Second Order. In my experience most people do not know about this block. Let's look at an example were the Integrator,... 続きを読む >>

Today I am happy to welcome guest blogger Jacob Halbrooks to describe some nice capabilities of the MATLAB System block dialog. The MATLAB System block is new in R2013b and allows you to... 続きを読む >>

Recently, I spoke with a user who needed to interface a Simulink model with an external flight simulator implemented as java classes. He was able to exchange data with his simulator at the MATLAB... 続きを読む >>

Ahhh... C Mex S-function... If you ever tried creating a C Mex S-function and were a little rusty on your C programming, you might have experienced strange behavior or event MATLAB crashes. This... 続きを読む >>

Today I want to highlight a new entry in the Simulation menu in R2013b: Log/Unlog Selected Signals. If you have to log multiple signals, this will save you a lot of time. As its name implies,... 続きを読む >>

When I wrote a post about the R2013b new features, Fraser replied in a comment that one of his favorite new feature is the requirements linking to MATLAB code. This made me realize that I never... 続きを読む >>

This week Matt Brauer is back to describe work he did to analyze the trajectory of the Hyperloop proposal. This is a key input to the Hyperloop Simulink models we are building. Matt's conclusion... 続きを読む >>

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 >>
