Step to build Simulink model with RecurDyn Plant Block
1. Run the MATLAB program.
2. Change the working directory to the directory that includes the M file and RecurDyn model (the RDYN file).
Figure 1 Changing the working directory
3. In the MATLAB command window, enter the name of M file.
Figure 2 Reserved variables from M file
4. In the MATLAB command window, enter “GRDClient”.
Figure 3 Entered GRDClient
5. And then, a new Simulink window with RecurDyn Plant Block appears.

6. Open the Simulink model (simouse.mdl).
7. Drag and drop RecurDyn Plant Block on the opened Simulink model window.
8. Construct the control algorithm as shown in Figure 5.
9. Save the Simulink model.
