Linearization
Linearize model, visualize linearized system characteristics
during simulation
A linearization is a linear approximation of a nonlinear system that is valid in a small region around a specific operating point. Simulink® Control Design™ software has both command-line linearization tools and a graphical Model Linearizer. For information about choosing linearization tools, see Choose Linearization Tools. For more information about linearization concepts, see Linearize Nonlinear Models.
