Modeling and Simulation with Simulink

System simulation is the study of system performance based on the mathematical models and systems behavior of real systems. In particular, it refers to use computers to investigate system performances. The fundamental contents of computer simulation include systems, modeling, algorithms, programming and simulation result display, analysis and validations. In this chapter, the commonly used blocks in Simulink block library are first explained, and the setting and simple use of Simulink are demonstrated, and the modeling strategies for various ODEs are explored.
