Simulation and Model-Based Design Simulink® is a block diagram environment for multidomain simulation and ModelBased Design. It supports system-level design, simulation, automatic code generation, and continuous test and verification of embedded systems. Simulink provides a graphical editor, customizable block libraries, and solvers for modeling and simulating dynamic systems. It is integrated with MATLAB®, enabling you to incorporate MATLAB algorithms into models and export simulation results to MATLAB for further analysis. Graphical editor for building and managing hierarchical block diagrams Libraries of predefined blocks for modeling continuous-time and discrete-time systems Scopes and data displays for viewing simulation results Project and data management tools for managing model files and data Model analysis tools for refining model architecture and increasing simulation speed MATLAB Function block for importing MATLAB algorithms into models Legacy Code Tool for importing C and C++ code into models Simulation engine with fixed-step and variable-step ODE solvers Simulink model of a wind turbine.
