VisSim/Analyze lets you perform a frequency domain analysis of a VisSim model or subsystem. It helps answer the question... "Is this a stable system ?"

VisSim/Analyze approximates the dynamics of a nonlinear system by linearizing the system about a specified operating point. Linearized systems can be represented in ABCD state space or transfer function form. With VisSim Analyze, you can easily access transfer function information, edit zeroes and poles and compute Nyquist, Bode and root locus plots.

You can then design a controller for a plant model by interactively editing compensator zeroes and poles, then observe their combined behaviour in Bode and root locus plots. Once the desired responses are obtained, the pole placement controller block is simply inserted into a VisSim diagram.

The preliminary pole placement controller is then connected to a plant model creating a feedforward or a feedback control loop. A simulation is run in VisSim and the results of the simulation can be viewed easily in the form of plots. The stability of the closed loop system can then be determined using Nyquist plots.

VisSim/Analyze lets you analyse system models or their subsystems and obtain state-space representation and pole-zero locations for complex systems. When frequency domain analysis is required, VisSim/Analyze generates Bode, Nyquist and root locus plots.

VisSim/Analyze also features a compensator design capability that allows you to design feedback control systems interactively. You edit the poles and zeros of the compensator transfer function in a floating window. In return, VisSim/Analyze automatically updates the Bode and root locus plots of the combined plant-compensator system to reflect the effects of the pole and zero manipulation. Once you attain the desired response characteristics, you can place the compensator in the VisSim diagram.

Features
  • Approximates the dynamics of a nonlinear system by linearizing the system about a specific operating point
  • ABCD state-space matrix form (screen display or .M/.MAT file exportation)
  • Numerical perturbation for creating SISO ABCD state-space linearization
  • Calculates transfer function information, including numerator and denominator polynomials in the powers of the s-plane; gain, zeros, and poles locator; and cleansing of numerical round-off errors
  • Computes Bode phase/magnitude, root locus and Nyquist plots
  • Interactive compensator design

Product Reviews

"Due to its power, flexibility, ease-of-use, and low cost, VisSim has been Carrier's choice for system modeling, simulation, data acquisition, and rapid prototyping for over eight years."
Mr. Richard Kolk - Manager Simulation & Control Technology

"For my current project, VisSim has allowed me to collapse my firmware development time from months down to about a week. It is almost impossible to overstate the importance of VisSim to my development time-table." -Greg Gottschalk
Electrical Engineer
