Simulation

Run models, review results, validate system behavior

With Simulink®, you can interactively simulate your system model and view the results on scopes and graphical displays. For simulation of continuous, discrete, and mixed-signal systems, you can choose from a range of fixed-step and variable-step solvers. Solvers are integration algorithms that compute system dynamics over time.

The integration of Simulink and MATLAB® enables you to run unattended batch simulations of your Simulink models using MATLAB commands.
