The
MathWorks would like to invite you to attend a pair of free technical
seminars on MATLAB being held at University of Washington in
the Student Union Building (HUB) room #334
on Tuesday, October 15th, 2013.
Please
register if you think you would like to attend either of the sessions
so we can plan accordingly for seating and hand-outs. A registration
link is
provided below.
There
is no charge, and any interested faculty, staff, researcher, or student
is welcome to attend. Feel free to pass this invite along to anyone you
feel
would be interested.
The presenter will be David Meissner, MathWorks Application Engineer.
Session 1:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Designing and Modeling a Multi-Domain Physical System in MATLAB
When: 10:00 AM – Noon, October 15th, 2013
Where:
Student Union Building (HUB) room #334.
9:45 AM – 10:00 AM Registration and Sign-in (Walk-ins welcome)
10:00 AM – Noon
Designing and Modeling a Multi-Domain Physical System in MATLAB
The
purpose of these sessions is to demonstrate how MATLAB and Simulink can
be used to design and model an electrically driven mechanical system.
The concepts you will learn
in this session can be applied to image processing, computer vision,
robotics, control design and embedded systems applications. We will
develop an object tracking algorithm in MATLAB (in the morning session)
and then (in the afternoon session) use Simulink
to design and model the mechanical and electrical components of the
motor. We will also show how to design and automatically tune the
controller to optimize system performance.
AM Session: Developing an Algorithm in MATLAB, Case study in Data/image acquisition and analysis
Highlights include:
·
Accessing data (from files or hardware)
·
Analyzing and visualizing data in MATLAB
·
Publishing and deploying the results
·
General information about Simulink and Simscape
We will end the session with time for open Q&A
This
session assumes attendees have little or no prior experience with
MATLAB; however experienced users will see some useful features
demonstrated.

Realizing the MATLAB algorithm for real-world use
·
Designing a controller and simulating a dynamic system
·
Performing feedback control design and optimization
·
Automatically generating code for prototyping
·
CAD import into SimMechanics
We will end the session with time for open Q&A
This
session assumes attendees have little or no prior experience with
Simscape or Simulink; however experienced users will see some useful
features demonstrated.
Attendees need not have attended the AM session.

Although
there are no exercises or hands-on activities planned, we will be
distributing the presenter’s code examples and slides via email to
anyone that attends
either session.
