Export Simscape Multibody Solid Information

Hi, good day!

Is there a way that I can export the derived values (mass, MOI, Product of Inertia) of all the Solid in a Simscape Multibody model in Excel or any other format?

Thanks

Hi,

I see that you are trying to export the derived values of all the Solid in a Simscape Multibody model in Excel or any other similar form.

While MATLAB does not have an existing method/tool to perform this, it is possible to do it using some of the built-in functionalities.

You can use MATLAB functions to extract these values and then write them to an Excel file. This would require you to write a script that utilized the "smexportonshape" function to export the physical properties of the solids in your model to a MATLAB structure and then extract all the required values to a table. This can then be written into an excel or a similar type of file.

You can read more about the "smexportonshape" function here: https://www.mathworks.com/help/sm/ref/smexportonshape.html

Hope this helps!
