Discover the acausal approach for modelling and simulating multi-physics systems
Introduction
Concept of acausal modelling – Difference with Simulink – Simple network modelling and simulation
Understanding the Simscape approach
Physical variables – Component constitution – Connection rules – Library organisation
Designing and simulating a network
Create a network – Access physical variables – Adjust the initial conditions
Connecting to different fields
Use of conversion blocks – Subsystem creation
Interfacing your model with Simulink and Matlab
Simscape/Simulink interface – Network inputs – Variable units – Parameters defined in Matlab – Algebraic loops – Managing solvers
Developing customised components
Edit the component code – Create and compile a component in Simscape language
