Introduction
LiveLink™ for Simulink® connects COMSOL Multiphysics® to the Simulink® system simulation environment. Using this functionality, you can do the following:
•
Perform cosimulation of COMSOL models together with Simulink diagrams.
•
Export state-space models based on COMSOL models. These state-space models are linearized models based on the total number of degrees of freedom (DOFs) for the COMSOL model.
•
Run COMSOL models as state-space systems in Simulink diagrams. These state-space models are linearized models using either the total number of degrees of freedom or using modal order reduction.
•
Use regular COMSOL and Simulink features to set up additional types of models.
The examples in this guide take you through the process of setting up a COMSOL model and explain how to use COMSOL Multiphysics within the Simulink simulation environment.
