Animated Vectors Plot with data coming from Simulink

[EDIT: 20110729 12:11 CDT - reformat - WDR]

I've been able to do this:

for t=1:360
hold on
corda=0.3;
r=0.3;
a=0;
b=0.2;
c=0.2;
d=0;
e=0.2;
f=0.2;
g=-0.2;
h=-0.2;
z=(-1*(r+corda));
x=(r+corda);
axis([z x z x]);
Dpercent=[0.00,1.25,2.50,5.00,7.50,10.00,15.00,20.00,30.00,40.00,50.00,60.00,70.00,80.00,90.00,95.00,100.00,100.00,95.00,90.00,80.00,70.00,60.00,50.00,40.00,30.00,20.00,15.00,10.00,7.50,5.00,2.50,1.25,0.00];
x=corda.*((Dpercent-25.00)./100);
Ypercent=[0.00,2.37,3.27,4.44,5.25,5.85,6.68,7.17,7.50,7.25,6.62,5.70,4.58,3.28,1.81,1.01,0.16,-0.16,-1.01,-1.81,-3.28,-4.58,-5.70,-6.62,-7.25,-7.50,-7.17,-6.68,-5.85,-5.25,-4.44,-3.27,-2.37,0.00];
y=r+(corda.*(Ypercent./100));
X=x.*cos(t*(2*pi)/360)-y.*sin(t*(2*pi)/360);
Y=x.*sin(t*(2*pi)/360)+y.*cos(t*(2*pi)/360);
plot(X,Y);
r1=0.*cos(t*(2*pi)/360)-r.*sin(t*(2*pi)/360);
r2=0.*sin(t*(2*pi)/360)+r.*cos(t*(2*pi)/360);
R1=[0,r1];
R2=[0,r2];
plot(R1,R2);
quiver(r1,r2,a,b);
quiver(r1,r2,c,d);
quiver(r1,r2,e,f);
quiver(r1,r2,g,h);
M(t)=getframe
clf
end
movie(M);

Now I need to esport simulation data from simulink to matlab's workspace.

I used the block "simout to workspace" I tryed to specify that I need a simple ARRAY variable type but it LOVES to SAVE MY DATA AS:

simout    <1x1x64 double>

I need a simple array made of 64 elements with my numerical value inside. My model is costant time division made so I don't need time information.

(Anyway could be usefull in tre future to know wow to obtain a two rows 64 coloumn matrix with a row for time and a row for values)

I don't know how to build a simple array from my

simout    <1x1x64 double>

For exemple to use it for defining the vectors component in the animation.

I need a simple exemple of script in which you take an array made like myne (simout double coming from "simout to workspace" setted like "ARRAY" type) and use it to plot it:

Wrong exemple:

A=[1:64];
plot(A,simout);

That exemple doesn't work....

How to make it run?

Does anybody knows?

thankyou.

Answer 1

[Graziano Ullucci]

This script work but, anybody knows a faster way tho download the values ftom simout into A?

A=[simout(:,:,1),simout(:,:,2),simout(:,:,3),simout(:,:,4) ------------ simout(:,:,500]; B=[1:500]; Plot(B,A);

Probably it is not very difficult someone can help me?

[Fangjun Jiang]

A=simout(:,:,1:500);

Answer 2

[Graziano Ullucci]

For exemple this doesn't work

B=[1:500]; A=[VwrX(:,:,B)]; plot(B,A);

It is faster but don't work. suggestions?

Answer 3

[Graziano Ullucci]

That's Work grate!

A=length(simout);

B=[1:A];

ArrayOUT(1,B)=simout(:,:,B);

thank You Myself! you're Grate!

[Fangjun Jiang]

Be careful, length() is equal to max(size()). It may not be the number you want.
