Overview
Simulink is a model-based design platform that provides an interactive modeling and simulation environment for engineers and scientists. Simulink helps users design, simulate, and analyze various systems before moving to hardware. Simulink is an add-on product to MATLAB.
This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at engineers and scientists who wish to install, implement, and manage Simulink capabilities for system modeling and simulation.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to model, simulate, solve, and analyze dynamical systems using Simulink.
