Matlab Simulink: How to Access SIMSCAPE for Electrical Simulations

In summary, the person is unable to find SIMSCAPE in their MATLAB library and is seeking advice on how to obtain it. They mention being an intern at a company and wondering if the recent update is causing the issue. The response advises obtaining a license from their company's IT department and clarifies that SIMSCAPE is not automatically included with MATLAB and must be licensed separately.

hello people,

I have MATLAB R2014a installed in my system, i would like to do some electrical simulations. Unfortunately I am unable to find SIMSCAPE in my library. Can anyone suggest me how to get it.

thanks in advance.

You need to obtain a license from your university/employer, who may or may not be able to provide it depending on what licences they have bought.

Actually I am an intern in a very big company. They updated it recently, so do you think that might be the problem ?
 
  • #4
Tis is then a question for your company's IT department, not for an internet forum.

The basic thing I wanted to know is, Is it normal that in simulink library simscape is missing ?
when ever one installs matlab, he definately gets simscape with it ?

No, you must license it separately.

ok, thank you so much for your words..
