1: Modeling and Simulation

( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)

This book is about modeling and simulating physical systems. Before we can build any models, it’ll help to have a high-level understanding of what a model is. We’ll also need to familiarize ourselves with the tools we use to build them. In this chapter, we’ll look at the modeling process and introduce MATLAB, the programming language we’ll use to represent models and run . At the end of the chapter you’ll find exercises you can use to test your knowledge.
