Technology Education

Modules for 

hands-on computational modeling 

Our goal is to stimulate Technology Education by Modeling and Simulation using MatLab, SimuLink and Comsol.


Why MatLab, SimuLink and Comsol (MSC)?  

MSC is integrated modeling software and is therefore superior to co-simulation.  Futhermore MSC can compile all models into (royalty-free) standalone apps. This is not only very handy but also shows that MSC is in full control of its own code.  

 This page contains 10 modules on modeling and simulation using MatLab, SimuLink and Comsol (MSC).  The best way to learn is by hands-on exercises.  After finishing all modules, you are really computoolable!


Before you can start creating models it is important that you get hands-on experience with your most important Tool


State-space models are based on ordinary differential equations  (ODEs) and matrices.  You need to have some basic  understanding  on these mathematical topics and learn how to work with them in MatLab


Create lumped models 


Create SimuLink models and include controllers 


Export and use your Matlab models in SimuLink


Learn flow-effort analogies and apply to lumped multi-physics modeling


Learn mathematical tools for 3D modeling

Hands-on experience using the best 3D multi-physics tool there is.


Export Comsol models in Matlab functions and SimuLink blocks


How to create models from papers, experiments and dedicated simulation software
