The MapleSim Control Design Toolbox provides a solid set of essential control design tools that extend MapleSim’s exceptional plant modeling capabilities to support control design. The MapleSim Control Design Toolbox provides:
- Greater flexibility and accuracy in your controllers. The symbolic approach for designing, analyzing, and testing control systems produces superior results.
- Increased reusability of your controller designs. You can document your design decisions using the extensive technical documentation tools available with MapleSim.
- An accelerated design process. Developing your plants and controllers together in the same environment reduces the need for inefficient tool-swapping.
Key Features
- Provides tools for model linearization, PID tuning, development of state-space control strategies, and custom compensator design.
- Incorporates symbolic techniques that make it possible to
- Characterize all possible solutions to a given control problem and then pick the best solution based on the particular situation.
- Build and investigate controllers where the model includes symbolic, unspecified parameters. The same controller design can then be applied to multiple related models without further tuning.
- Create controllers where the design specifications are parametric, so the same controller can be used successfully under a variety of conditions.
- Provides easy-to-use MapleSim templates for interactive controller development and analysis.
- Includes a set of 20 Maple language commands, which provides programmatic access to all functionality as an alternative to the interactive interface and supports custom application development.
- Templates, documentation, and examples are incorporated seamlessly into the MapleSim environment, providing a single consistent interface for developing both the plant and the controller.
