Mastering Simulink 4 - Softcover

"...there are numerous engaging illustrations of situations involving motivation ... It is likely to appeal to a concrete, down-to-earth type of person looking for very practical advice." - Dr. Jeffrey G. Reed, Marian College "Each section uses a variety of tools to engage and challenge the reader ... These tools lead the reader to greater self-discovery." - Dr. Kenneth Davis, Villanova University

For courses in Control Theory and Operational Amplifiers. Simulink is a programming language specifically designed for simulating dynamical systems using standard block diagram notation. Therefore students should have the appropriate mathematical preparation including a good understanding of the fundamental concepts from introductory courses such as calculus and differential equations. The text presents detailed coverage of programming using Simulink. Beginning with a block diagram tutorial, the book presents an overview of Simulink and describes in detail the procedures for building, editing, and running a Simulink model. The book also provides explanations for debugging techniques, including the interactive debugger. The text concludes with an introduction to Stateflow (TM), a Simulink extension that adds the capability to model finite state machines subsystems using a variant of the popular Statecharts formalism.
