[scilab-Users] RE: Simulate the quarter-car model

[Mike Page]

Hi Henoch,

I'm afraid Sylvestre is right.  Actually, setting up a state-space representation is very easy and is a fundamental aspect of modern control theory.  If you honestly have no idea how to do this, maybe you are tackling a problem that is outside your specialist area.  If you need a refresher on state space theory, you will find a good one on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_space_%28controls%29).

I suggest you do this and try to implement the equations in Scilab.  This is also very easy and Scilab provides a good help system and many examples and documents to get started.  Contact the user group again when you have some Scilab code and want some help getting it to work.  Everyone here is very willing to assist you, but we can't create your solution for you.

Best regards,
Mike.

 Dear Henoch,

 Please restraint yourself for sending such requests.
 Your project looks like a university project. You should work on this 
 instead of asking Mike to do it for you...

 Thanks,
 Sylvestre
