Engineering Computations and Modeling in MATLAB/Simulink provides a broad overview of The MathWorks’ MATLAB/Simulink/GUIDE development and modeling environment. This textbook shows how to use these software tools effectively in a variety of engineering applications, including modeling real-world dynamic systems.

Concepts Discussed:

  • Major concepts of MATLAB, Symbolic Math Toolbox, Simulink, and GUIDE
  • Development of effective foolproof M-file scripts and functions
  • Use of the 2D and 3D plotting functions and handle graphics
  • Creation of interactive user interfaces and animations
  • Presentation of numerical methods, coded in MATLAB functions
  • Accuracy of digital computations

Special Features:

  • Numerous examples
  • Derivation of fundamental formulas using symbolic math computations
  • Dynamic systems modeling in MATLAB and Simulink
  • Development of user-friendly standalone GUIs
  • Introduction of aerospace engineering tools

This book is used as a textbook by undergraduate and graduate students taking introductory and advanced courses in applied programming, and also as a reference for working professionals using MATLAB/Simulink.
