I want to run a model for different input parameters, using an arraySimulink.SimulaitonInput Objects.

In the StopFcn of the Model I want to read some of the model parameters and variables set by the simulink.SimulationInput objects.

To access the parameters I can call

get_param(gcs,'Parameter')

to get the value of the parameter as set by the Simulink.SimulationInput object.

However to access variables of the model I would need to do:

mdlWks = get_param(gcs,'ModelWorkspace');
Variable = getVariable(mdlWks,'Variable');

This however only gives me the default version of the value for Variable. I waat the current set value of Variable though. Is there an alternative get_var function or something that can do this?

Instead of using the StopFcn, maybe you can use setPostSimFcn functionality

The documentation, at least in 2022a, is ... less than clear. Anyway, here's an example.

I have a simulaion 'untitled' that uses one variable, "theConstant." Illusturate functionality to pass the simIn.Variables to the output of the sim command.

Create simIn

simIn = Simulink.SimulationInput('untitled');

Set theConstant in simIn. Use the model workspace

simIn = setVariable(simIn,'theConstant',5,'Workspace','untitled');
simIn.Variables

ans =

Variable with properties:

Name: 'theConstant'

Value: 5

Workspace: 'untitled'

Description: ""

Set the post sim function using an anonymous function. Use simIn.Variables as the input to simpostfunc

simIn = setPostSimFcn(simIn,@(simout) simpostfunc(simIn.Variables));

Run the simulation and verify that simIn variables are copied to the sim output via simpostfunc

y = sim(simIn);
y

y =

Simulink.SimulationOutput:

simvars: [1x1 Simulink.Simulation.Variable]

SimulationMetadata: [1x1 Simulink.SimulationMetadata]

ErrorMessage: [0x0 char]

y.simvars

ans =

Variable with properties:

Name: 'theConstant'

Value: 5

Workspace: 'untitled'

Description: ""

function newout = simpostfunc(simvariables)
% simple function to echo the simIn variables to the the simulation output
newout.simvars = simvariables;
end

Each element of the simIn array has its own PostSimFcn. Here is code that binds a unique PostSimFcn to each element, storing the the variable used for each run:

for ii = 1:5
    simIn(ii) = Simulink.SimulationInput('untitled');
    simIn(ii) = setVariable(simIn(ii),'theConstant',ii,'Workspace','untitled');
    simIn(ii) = setPostSimFcn(simIn(ii),@(simout) simpostfunc(simIn(ii).Variables));
end
y = sim(simIn);
y
y.simvars

y =

1x5 Simulink.SimulationOutput array

ans =

Variable with properties:

Name: 'theConstant'

Value: 1

Workspace: 'untitled'

Description: ""

ans =

Variable with properties:

Name: 'theConstant'

Value: 2

Workspace: 'untitled'

Description: ""

ans =

Variable with properties:

Name: 'theConstant'

Value: 3

Workspace: 'untitled'

Description: ""

ans =

Variable with properties:

Name: 'theConstant'

Value: 4

Workspace: 'untitled'

Description: ""

ans =

Variable with properties:

Name: 'theConstant'

Value: 5

Workspace: 'untitled'

Description: ""

As expected, y is a 5-element array of Simulink.SimulationOutput objects, and each element of y contains the value of theConstant that was used in the simulation that generated that element of y.

Well, you could just as easily do that. But the original qeustion started with using using the StopFcn, so I thought you wanted to use automatic callback functionality. Either way, sounds like you have a path forward.

I just realized that the code I posted will overwrite output data in output of sim. The corrections would be pass the sim output into the post sim function, modify it, and return it.

simIn(ii) = setPostSimFcn(simIn(ii),@(simout) simpostfunc(out,simIn(ii).Variables));
function out = simpostfunc(out,simvariables)
% simple function to echo the simIn variables to the the simulation output
out.simvars = simvariables;
end
