MATLAB: Can models from ETAS ASCET be imported into Simulink 7.9 (R2012a)

ascetetassimulink

I have been working with ETAS ASCET, and would like to import some models into Simulink 7.9 (R2012a) for the capabilities of Simulink.

Is this workflow possible?

Best Answer

There is no direct way to import models from ETAS ASCET into Simulink 7.9 (R2012a). However, there are two available options to consider in order to interface between these products.

1. ETAS - INTECRIO

The INTECRIO product, which is also produced by ETAS, allows for co-simulation of ASCET and Simulink models. For more information on this, please refer to the ETAS page below:

2. Simulink S-Functions

The other approach is to use the code generator in ASCET in order to convert an ASCET model into C code. This code can then be packaged into a C S-Function. This allows users to introduce their own C code into Simulink as a block.

MATLAB: Plotting eta v/s iteration

N = 15 ; 
beta_a = 10;
alpha_n = 10 ;
eta = zeros(1,N) ; 
eta(1)=15;
for i=1:N-1
    
    theta_i = asind(sind(beta_a)*sind(eta(i)));
    theta_n = atand(tand(beta_a)*cosd(eta(i)))- alpha_n;
    
    phi_i = asind(sqrt(2)*sind(theta_i));
    phi_n = acosd(tand(theta_i)/tand(phi_i))-theta_n ;
    
    eta(i+1) = atand((tand(i)*cosd(phi_n-alpha_n)-cosd(alpha_n)*tand(phi_i))/sind(phi_n));
end
plot(1:N,eta)

dj - on the first iteration of your inner for loop

j=1;
for t=0:deltat:1400;
    for i=1:N;
        eta(j,i)=a(i)*cos(2*pi*f(i)*t+e(i));
        eta(j,N)=eta(j,N)+eta(j,i);
    end
end

since you never pre-size (or pre-allocate memory) to eta then it is a 1x1 scalar when you do the first assignment for eta(j,i). On the next line you try to update and access the 1000th (N) element of this scalar...and since it doesn't exist, the access is probably what is throwing the error. You probably want to pre-size the array before entering the outer for loop

eta = zeros(1,N);

While that should fix the error, is it really what you want to do? Why is j never incremented? The fact that it isn't seems to conflict with your call to plot

plot(eta(:,1),eta(:,N))

In the above, you are assuming that eta is a column array but you are initializing it as if it were a row array. I suspect also that the above call to plot is not really what you want unless you are assuming that eta is an axN matrix and so you are plotting with the first and last columns of eta.
