Model Verification
Simulink® Control Design™ software provides Model Verification blocks to monitor time-domain and frequency-domain characteristics of a linear system computed from a nonlinear Simulink model during simulation. You can use these blocks to define bounds on specific linear system characteristics and check whether these bounds are satisfied during simulation. For more information, see Monitor Linear System Characteristics in Simulink Models and Verifiable Linear System Characteristics.
