New features and changes introduced in this version are
The new Fundamental Friction Clutch block allows you to create customized clutch models. It requires you to provide the kinetic and static friction torques as functions of time, in the form of Simulink input signals.
The existing Controllable Friction Clutch block is unchanged in functionality. But it is now based on the Fundamental Friction Clutch.
R2008a introduces "What's This?" context-sensitive help for parameters that appear in the Simulink Configuration Parameters dialog. This feature provides quick access to a detailed description of the parameters, saving you the time it would take to find the information in the Help browser.
To use the "What's This?" help, do the following:
Place your cursor over the label of a parameter.
Right-click. A What's This? context menu appears.
For example, the following figure shows the What's This? context menu appearing after a right-click on the Start time parameter in the Solver pane.

Click What's This? A context-sensitive help window appears showing a description of the parameter.
