Question

1. What are the governing equations used to simulate the physical system? What are the parameters that govern the dynamics ( Most to least) and how they effect the dynamics of the system. (Topic on Modeling and Simulation of Mechatronics Systems i.e Robotics)- Please provise the answer without plagarism.

2. Show simulation result, and discuss. - (Topic on Modeling and Simulation of Mechatronics Systems i.e Robotics)- Please provise the answer without plagarism.

3. what would you do differently to improve on the system reponse. - (Topic on Modeling and Simulation of Mechatronics Systems i.e Robotics)- Please provise the answer without plagarism.

Explanation / Answer

As a part of the thesis, several languages and tools are investigated, including bond graphs, MATLAB/Simulink, Ptolemy II, Modelica, MATLAB/Simscape and SysML. For SysML, the modeling of continuous-time systems and how it relates to MATLAB/Simulink and Modelica is evaluated. A case study of an electric power assisted steering is modeled to show the differences, the similarities and the usage of the above mentioned languages and tools. To be able to classify the tools and languages, five realization levels were developed: • Physical modeling models • Constraint models • Continuous causal models • Discretized models • Discretized models with solver and platform implementation By using these realization levels, models, tools and modeling languages can be classified, and transformations between them can be set up and analyzed.
