Useful Information
What is Simulink? (1)
A software package for modeling,
simulating, and analyzing dynamic systems.
Supports linear and nonlinear systems,
modeled in continuous time, sample time, or
a hybrid of the two.
Systems can also be multirate (i.e. different
parts that are sampled or updated at
different rates)
What is Simulink? (2)
For modeling, it provides a graphical user
interface (GUI) for building models as block
diagrams (using click-and-drag mouse
operations)
Can build models in hierarchical fashion
(using both top-down and bottom-up
approaches)
You can simulate, analyze the output results,
explore, revise your models and have FUN!

Creating Subsystems
Useful Information
Creating Subsystems (1)
Subsystem similar to Subroutine
Advantage of Subsystems:
Reduce the number of blocks display on the
main window (i.e. simplify the model)
Group related blocks together (i.e. More
organized)
Can create a hierarchical block diagram (i.e.
you can create subsystems within a subsystem )
Easy to check for mistakes and to explore
different parameters
Creating Subsystems (2)
Create Subsystem using model in Example 1
STEP 1: Creating Blocks (Main window)
