Simscape Multibody Model from MATLAB Code

MATLAB code to build a Simscape Multibody model of a single link and a multi-link pendulum

This file contains MATLAB code to build a Simscape Multibody model of a single link and a multi-link pendulum. MATLAB commands such as add_block, add_line, and set_param are used to add, connect blocks and set block parameter values. This technique can be used for creating models from blocks in Simscape libraries or Simscape add-on products.
