Description

This block is the same as the Linear Step Response Plot block except for different default

parameter settings in the Bounds tab.

Check that bounds on step response characteristics of a linear system, computed from a

nonlinear Simulink model, are satisfied during simulation.

The Simulink model can be continuous-time, discrete-time or multirate and can have time

delays. Because you can specify only one linearization input/output pair in this block, the

linear system is single-input single-output (SISO).

During simulation, the software linearizes the portion of the model between specified

linearization inputs and outputs, computes the step response and checks that the step

response satisfies the specified bounds:

• If all bounds are satisfied, the block does nothing.


• If a bound is not satisfied, the block asserts, and a warning message appears at the
  MATLAB prompt. You can also specify that the block:
  
  
  • Evaluate a MATLAB expression.
  
  
  • Stop the simulation and bring that block into focus.
