MapleSim and Simulink
While MapleSim™ offers many advantages
over Simulink®, Maplesoft™ also offers solutions that allow you to enhance and extend your Simulink models by integrating MapleSim’s high-performance, multi-domain environment into your existing toolchain. By including MapleSim in your development process, you can:
- Produce models that can be simulated in Simulink more quickly than if the model had been created in Simulink with appropriate add-ons.
- Create complex models more easily and accurately using MapleSim’s intuitive modelling environment.
- Generate high-performance models of complex engineering systems for Real-Time Workshop®. Using MapleSim with the
- MapleSim Connectivity Toolbox is the only way to simulate many systems fast enough for real-time applications without losing fidelity.
- Gain a better understanding of model behaviour through MapleSim’s analysis tools.
- Increase the reusability of your models through the use of the MapleSim design documentation environment.
MapleSim
Connector
The MapleSim Connector allows you to quickly develop and optimize
engineering system models in the intuitive physical modeling environment
of MapleSim, and then automatically convert the high-performance, high-fidelity
MapleSim models to S-Function blocks for seamless inclusion in Simulink® diagrams.
You can add MapleSim’s intuitive physical modeling environment, optimization
and analysis tools, and design documentation abilities to your development
environment while producing Simulink® models that are more efficient
than those you would get using Simulink® with appropriate add-ons.
BlockImporter
BlockImporter is a Maple™ add-on that allows you to import your Simulink® models
into Maple, where you can then turn them into MapleSim custom components for
inclusion in MapleSim. This process is made simple with the use of the MapleSim
Import Template, available from the Application Center. BlockImporter converts
your Simulink® model into a set of concise mathematical equations, which
are optimized and simplified in Maple using built-in symbolic math techniques.
These equations form the basis of a new, highly efficient MapleSim custom component
that can be simulated in the MapleSim environment, used as part of more complex
models, and even exported back into Simulink® using the MapleSim Connector
as a replacement for the less efficient original model.
