Modeling With SimHydraulics   Modeling a Hydraulic Actuation System  This video demo shows how to model a hydraulic actuation system using SimHydraulics. A double-acting hydraulic cylinder is controlled by a four-way directional valve.   Modeling a Custom Hydraulic Valve  In this video demo, we show how to use Simscape to model a four-way hydraulic valve and a hydraulic cylinder. Hydraulic and mechanical physical modeling building blocks are used to build this model.   Simscape Language: Hydraulic Example    This video demo shows how to model custom hydraulic components using the Simscape language. We build a model of a fixed hydraulic orifice using this MATLAB-based physical modeling language.   Estimating the Parameters of a Hydraulic System  In this video demo we show how you can use optimization algorithms to obtain realistic parameter values for a hydraulic cylinder. Parameter values will be tuned automatically until simulation results match measurement data.   Integrating Physical Systems and Controller    This video demo shows how to detect integration issues in simulation. Models of mechanical, hydraulic, electrical, and control systems are gradually integrated into a full system model, enabling engineers to test systems in isolation and to test overall system performance.   Simulating With SimHydraulics   Optimizing System Performance    This video demo shows how to use optimization algorithms to automatically tune the performance of a hydromechanical pitch control system until it meets system requirements.   Analyzing and Documenting Results    This video demo shows how to automatically run tests and generate a report documenting simulation results. The Simulink Report Generator is used to run tests, evaluate performance, and to capture screenshots of the model and simulation results into a document.   Deploying SimHydraulics Models   Using Local Solvers for Real-Time Simulation    This video demo shows how to configure local solvers on your physical networks to minimize computations during fixed-step simulations. Combining these solvers enables this model to run in real time.   Hardware In The Loop (HIL) Testing    This video demo shows how to use HIL testing instead of hardware prototypes to test control algorithms. A Simulink model using MathWorks physical modeling tools is converted to C code and downloaded onto Bachmann electronic M1 hardware controller.   Protecting Intellectual Property in Subsystems    This video demo shows how to protect the contents of a subsystem containing physical modeling components. The resulting subsystem can be shared for simulation and parameter testing without exposing intellectual property.   Protecting Simscape Language Components    This video demo shows how to convert your Simscape language source code to a binary format so that you can share them with other engineers without exposing your intellectual property.   Systems   Hydraulic Circuit with Single-Acting Cylinder    Closed-Loop Circuit with 4-Way Valve and Custom Cylinder    Hydraulic System with Servo-Valve    Double-Acting Hydraulic Cylinder with Flexible Clamping    Hydraulic Transmission with Secondary Control    Hydraulic Circuit with Load-Sensing Velocity Control    Hydraulic Circuit with Load-Sensing Velocity Control    Power-Assisted Steering Mechanism    Reciprocal Actuator with Counterbalance Valves    Hydraulic Actuator with Two-Chamber Snubbers    Digital Hydraulic Actuator    Typical Units   Hydraulic Flapper-Nozzle Amplifier    Segmented Pipeline Test Rig    Valves   Graetz Flow Control Circuit  View All Demos Trial Software Available Licensed Users: Download a 15-day trial of most MathWorks products (login required).
