Title: Tech Talk #1 - Modelling with Simscape
Presenter: V Krishna Teja Mantripragada at Indian Institute of Technology, Madras
Short Description: Modelling complex systems has always been tough, especially among students who find it daunting to derive equations and implement them. While MATLAB isn't the best solution for all kinds of simulations, nonetheless it offers some cool features for macro modeling. In this short meeting we shall discuss modelling with simscape/simscape multibody. We shall also focus on rule zero in academic research: "Never trust models in . The user is responsible to validate them" - Timothy Drotar
