MathWorks - Simulink Control Design     
Simulink Control Design provides advanced functionality for performing linear analysis of nonlinear models. You can extract linear approximations of a model to analyze characteristics such as time and frequency responses and pole-zero dynamics. A graphical user interface (GUI) and programming capabilities reduce the complexity and time required to develop the linearized models.

Dymola� - Dynamic Modeling Laboratory   
Dymola� is an object-oriented language and a program for modeling large systems. Reuse of modeling knowledge is supported by use of libraries containing model classes and through inheritance. The user need not convert the equations to assignment statements. This is done symbolically by Dymola. Matrix equations facilitate convenient modeling of 3-D mechanical systems, control systems, etc. Discontinuous equations and instantaneous equations are supported to model friction, impact and difference equations. Dymola automatically generates the needed time and state events.

Continuous test and verification is a cornerstone of Model-Based Design [http://www.mathworks.com/applications/controldesign/description/mbd.html]. Early verification and validation, also known as V and V, enables you to find errors early in the development process, when they are less costly to fix. One way that Model-Based Design achieves this efficiency is through simulation and testing.

Simulation of Electric Machine and Drive Systems    
This package presents computer models of electric machines based on the space vector formulation leading to the assessment of the dynamic performance of open- and closed-loop ac and dc drive systems. The Simulink/Matlab implementation is adopted because of its inherent integration of vectorized system representations in block diagram form, of numerical analysis methods, of graphical portrayal of time evolutions of signals combined with the simple realization of the functionality of controllers and power electronic excitations. The development of Simulink models of drive assemblies is a relatively simple task consisting of combining input-output block representation of the various components making up the system; these blocks can readily be reused (utilizing standard copy-and-paste techniques) to modify the system components or the configuration of the system. This approach provides a powerful design tool because of the ease of observing the effects of parameters modifications and of differing system configurations and control strategies.

robsim - A simple MATLAB simulation for camera based control of mobile robots   
This small set of MATLAB m-scripts can be used to learn about camera controlled mobile robots and linear estimation. The central simulation is robsim, a GUI based m-script which gives access to all available elements of the simulation environment. The simulation robsim has been written to assist students of robotics and mechatronics degrees in developing algorithms for the control of mobile robots based on visual feedback from a ceiling mounted camera. The simulation provides a virtual environment, which closely resembles the real environment of the laboratory. Replacing the live stream of images from the camera by simulated images, the students can develop their robot control algorithms off-line, without the need for access to the actual hardware such as the camera and/or other laboratory equipment. The resulting algorithms can then be verified using real robots. The seamless integration of robsim with the camera control toolbox FireWire VisionTools, ensures a close match between simulation and the real application. In fact, the image processing algorithms developed off-line should perform much the same as when applied to a stream of live images from the real camera. A number of callback functions have been implemented for the definition of a robot model, an optional on-line parameter estimator as well as the actual controller algorithm. These callback functions are called at various stages of the main simulation loop. The use of callback functions has the advantage of separating the code of the control algorithm (to be written by the students) from the code of the simulation itself (remains unaltered).
