Introduction

A Handbook on Engineering Computation and Modeling in MATLAB and Simulink is a practical guide to engineering computation, modeling and simulation using MATLAB and Simulink. Designed for students, researchers and practicing engineers, the handbook provides a structured introduction to MATLAB programming and demonstrates how simulation tools can be applied to solve engineering problems.

The book is divided into two sections. The first introduces MATLAB fundamentals, including built-in commands, mathematical computations, graphical plotting, differential equation solving and the use of toolboxes. The second focuses on Simulink, explaining its core features and demonstrating the modeling and simulation of electrical engineering systems through step-by-step examples. Worked examples and practical exercises help readers develop the skills needed to analyze, simulate and interpret engineering systems for academic, research and industrial applications.

Preface

This book is intended to serve as a handbook for the Engineering students at the Undergraduate (UG) and Postgraduate (PG) levels of various Technical Institutions in an organized and easily understandable way.

This book is written primarily as an introduction to the basics of Engineering Computation and Modeling using MATLAB/Simulink. This book serves as a quick start point of modeling and simulation within a few hours of various Engineering problems by using various available toolboxes as a user-friendly interface.

This includes a quick simulation by using various available built-in functions together with the development of a block diagram using Simulink in MATLAB. The available functions and toolboxes of MATLAB/Simulink are used to study, design, and analyse the various circuits and systems, which can be used to develop a real-time prototype of the considered system.

We hope that the present book will be useful to the students and teachers as well.
