I am fairly new with simulink and only went through a couple of tutorials on how to use it. but i am looking to do some control system design with a 3D model.

I know i have lots to learn so i would like to get some directions as to where i should go to reach my goal.

I am looking to eventually be able to do something like this http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/23931

I have looked through some MATLAB webminars but a lot of them seem to be overviews. I am wondering if there are more specific tutorials out there that is closer to my needs. I know I am not the first person to want to do something like this.

thanks!

Hello,

Welcome to the world of Simulink and control system design! It's great to hear that you are interested in using 3D models in your simulations.

Firstly, I would recommend checking out the MathWorks website for Simulink tutorials and documentation. They have a wide range of resources available, including specific tutorials on control system design and using 3D models.

Additionally, I would suggest taking a look at the Simulink Examples page, where you can find examples of different types of control systems and how to implement them using Simulink. This will give you a good idea of how to approach your own project.

Furthermore, there are many online forums and communities dedicated to Simulink and control system design, such as the MATLAB Central File Exchange that you mentioned. These forums are a great place to ask questions and get advice from experienced users.

Lastly, I highly recommend taking some online courses or attending workshops on Simulink and control system design. These courses are often more in-depth and hands-on, and can provide you with valuable skills and knowledge.

I wish you the best of luck in your journey to mastering Simulink and control system design. Don't hesitate to reach out to the community for help and guidance along the way. Happy simulating!
 

FAQ: Matlab simulink + control systems + 3D model how?

1. How do I create a 3D model in Matlab Simulink?

To create a 3D model in Matlab Simulink, you will need to use the Simulink 3D Animation toolbox. This toolbox allows you to create 3D models, animate them, and integrate them with your control system designs. You can use built-in 3D objects or import your own CAD models to create a customized 3D model.

2. Can I simulate control systems using Matlab Simulink?

Yes, Matlab Simulink has built-in tools for simulating control systems. These tools allow you to design and simulate various control algorithms, such as PID controllers, state-space controllers, and more. You can also visualize the results of your simulations using plots and graphs.

3. How do I integrate a control system with a 3D model in Matlab Simulink?

You can integrate a control system with a 3D model in Matlab Simulink by using the Simulink 3D Animation toolbox. This toolbox allows you to create a virtual world where you can simulate your control system and visualize it in real-time. You can also use the Simulink Control Design toolbox to design and tune your control system parameters.

4. Is it possible to animate a control system in a 3D environment using Matlab Simulink?

Yes, it is possible to animate a control system in a 3D environment using Matlab Simulink. The Simulink 3D Animation toolbox allows you to create animations of your control system in a virtual environment. You can also use this toolbox to add sensors and actuators to your 3D model and simulate their interactions with the control system.

5. Can I use Matlab Simulink for real-time control system applications?

Yes, Matlab Simulink can be used for real-time control system applications. The Real-Time Workshop feature allows you to generate real-time code from your Simulink models, which can then be deployed on hardware platforms for real-time control. You can also use the xPC Target toolbox to interface with external hardware and run your control system in real-time.
