model and simulate Stewart Platform

SimMechanics, in conjunction with Simulink and MATLAB, enables engineers to model complicated mechanical systems, simulate and analyze the models, and develop controllers for the mechanical system. In this technical example, we examine how to use SimMechanics to model physical components, synthesize controllers, and simulate the closed loop performance of a Stewart Platform, a six degrees-of-freedom positioning system. Stewart Platforms are used in many applications for positioning objects.
