Thank you very much Nikolai. Your 20:08 minutes are much more worth of entire weeks of lessons by professors at university.
Really appreciated this video.

[@tonyt3336]

"I hope this was a little bit of help..." No, it was A LOT OF HELP! Thank you!

[@lorinczhuff688]

This is the best introduction to Simulink that I have seen so far. Plain language but packed with everything I needed to get started.

[@TaterBot1000]

Just what I needed for a quick intro to handle my project. Thanks a ton, man. Superb vid.

[@diego.almeida]

Great Introduction. Very well explained, congratulations!!

[@JohnSmith-ed1sr]

Very great video! Thank you so much! What a great little intro to simulink. Not to complicated. I have never used it before so a nice basic example was awesome! Thank you!

[@loayalahmad108]

straight forward, clear, well explained.

Very helpful, just in time to clear the confusion from my control systems project. I like how you discuss the details behind every step, something many tutorials lack!

[@NikolaiK]

Thank you for the feedback. Good luck on your project.

[@rossoneri2211]

Hi, I'm designing a PID controller for an Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). and im having difficulties trying to figure out the inputs and outputs to the PID controller, and its transfer function. Can you help me please?

[@KennyGuyte]

Thanks a million for the knowledge, and experience.

[@dhiruiitk]

Thank You... Good Video and Good Explanation...

[@sebascarra]

Excellent video for beginners like me!
Only thing I would add: you can rotate any block with CTRL + R.

[@adnankhan-zi5hc]

Really really helpful.
God bless you.

[@danieljane1139]

Thank you so much for the precise introduction. To be honest your one video is far more better than my so called phd teacher and his assisstance at the university, who never tried to explain to us how does a simulink works. They can only do one thing, giving you homeworks and assignments and want output from you. This is typical in german universities!! They think we know everything and they are taking class only to evaluate our results lol. shame that they keep telling us how experienced professor he is but never help a student.

[@scorpion96001]

very nicely presented. thanks :)

[@Diego4322237]

thanks so much friend, your video is great. is very useful for me... muchas gracias desde Colombia.

[@imampatrick]

you are amazing dude, thanks a lottt

[@twinstarsnz3626]

Thanks. Great lesson

[@johntiloshvilli]

This was excellent! I would love to see a side by side comparison between Matlab Simulink and Scilab since Scilab is similar but uses a slightly different system.

[@user-sb3tk9vu2d]

Thank you so much, sir.

[@sikandark7819]

One of the best video I have ever seen on PID and Simulink. Thankyou so much. Can we implement the same TF with fuzzy controll? Any video on FIS for the same system?

[@weihongli9615]

What is the difference between a mux block and a bus creator block ?

[@AJEETKUMAR-ej5st]

Thank you very much for such a good explanation, Can you please guide, How can I find Overshoot and Peak time form the model or the output graph. Also, if I have certain constraint on overshoot and peak time, than how can I design the values of gain blocks...

[@akme-lrnworld810]

Thank you🌹

[@ebinwilson1352]

thank you so much

[@WEIHONGyawn]

Hi. How do i get the rise time, overshoot, settling time and s-s error values from the scope? Thank you!

[@luizb4784]

Hey there! I have a transfer function of a control valve in a small pilot plant (step test). I used ident and found lots of possible orders, some with zeros included. All orders gavem 90%+ fit. I tried to tune a 4order1zero tf obtained from it with ZN but it didn't work. My question is: Why ZN tuning didn't work? And also can I used other good fits? If so, why use them?

[@zainabalbakaa6127]

Thank you

Great thank you very match

[@rahulsorathiya5879]

What is the value of P and I for three parallel PID for speed control of induction motor?

[@Andergsx750]

Good but how do I calculate the values ​​of Kp, Kd or Ki to ensure that the overshoot is less than "x%" and in the same way the settling time and error

[@mostafaabdelalim7390]

Thanks alot for great video.Could you show how to use Zigeler method of tunning?

[@Parirash123]

Thank you..

[@abdullahalghamdi618]

How can calcute value of Ki and Kp?
if the input changable 37 to 47 and i want output constant 170 or 180V

[@gledsonmelotti7497]

Do you have an example about method relay in the simulink?

[@TheCutieEnity]

Hi, I would like to enquire whey you need a PID controller and a transfer function? Just use either 1 would give a desired result isn't it?

[@NikolaiK]

Hello,
The transfer function itself represents the thing that we want to control. It is a simple model of some system.

[@techzila5379]

Sir Please tell how I can apply PID controller for controlling the rotor shaft supported by active magnetic bearing s ?

[@aditiyadav7076]

How can i simulate non-linear state space equation with input and state delay in simulink????

[@sudhansumtripathy]

excellent

[@Arturo_Electronico]

great !

[@eraofdoom]

Wow, this is such an informative video, thank you for sharing! Might I ask what program you use to screen record?

[@NikolaiK]

I used a program called BSR Screen Recorder. At the time (6 years ago) there were few options that were able to record rendered video output and the mouse pointer.

[@reddylaxman4495]

I am working on my project to design PID controller for a self balancing LEGO robot.
Can you help me how exactly it should be done??
Thanks

How to use auto scale option in MATLAB r2018a ?? , There is no autoscale option in r2018a?

[@phanvankiem7360]

hello sir!
Can you help me with simulinking sliding mode control? i cant do that

[@amadpiki927]

can you explain the transfer function? do all pid have same transfer function? how to construct one of it?

[@sukhvirmani1244]

sir, i am doing my m.tech project on speed control of induction motor with PID controller only , please help how to make the transfer function of induction motor

[@drirfankhan2073]

How to make this statement in simulink :
Varying the current from 1 to 25A, in steps of 0.4 ampere, every 40 s over a total simulation period of 2720 s. Sir I have to give output of this as input to a model containing continuous states. Can you please tell me how to achieve this in simulink. Please help sir.

[@sudhansumtripathy]

Hi , I just have a equation and do not have a transfer function , how to use a PID and tune a PID, I wanted to model an inverted spring pendulum.

[@NikolaiK]

Most likely, you have to take the equation and transform it into the Laplace domain.
Alternatively, if you can simulate the system in Simulink, you can also heuristically tune the controller (via a "guess-and-check" method).

[@sudhansumtripathy]

may I have your email Id please , Please message me in my FB facebook.com/sudhansum.tripathy, I need a help with it , I have used auto tune in MATLAB and want to send you the document so that you can see it.

[@FORESTER2011]

Could you recommend some good books on how to use matlab Simulink especially control toolbox part?

[@fnjyusername]

How can we convert PID from mathlab optimized equation to C language..for embrdded c programming say arduino? can you mke tutorial for that...Thanks.
