This book covers the most essential and hands-on tools and functions of the MATLAB
and Simulink packages and the Symbolic Math Toolbox (MuPAD notes) to solve, model,
and simulate ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and partial differential equations
(PDEs). It explains how to solve ODEs and PDEs symbolically and numerically via
interactive examples and case studies. The main principle of the book is “learn by doing,”
moving from the simple to the complex. This book contains dozens of solved problems
and simulation models embedded in MATLAB scripts and Simulink models, which
will help you to master programming and modeling essentials, as well as learn how to
program and model more difficult and complex problems that involve ODEs and PDEs.
Practical MATLAB Modeling with Simulink explains various practical issues
of programming and modeling in parallel by comparing the programming tools of
MATLAB to the modeling tools of Simulink. By studying this book, you’ll be proficient
at using the MATLAB/Simulink packages and at using the source codes and models
from the book’s examples as templates for your own projects to solve modeling and
simulation, or engineering problems with ODEs and PDEs.
This book is aimed at engineers, programmers, data scientists, and students
majoring in engineering, applied/industrial math, data science, and scientific
computing. This book continues where Apress’ Beginning MATLAB and Simulink leaves
off.
