Simscape Multibody First Generation blocks are not visible in Simulink Library Browser even though they are mentioned in the documentation.

Answer 1

This behavior is expected. The First Generation SimMechanics blocks are planned to be deprecated.

For now. the library is still accessible from MATLAB R2017b and R2018a by executing this command in MATLAB Command Window:

>> open_system('mblibv1')

OR

>> mechlib

The Simscape Multibody First Generation library will soon be deprecated. Consider using the Second Generation Library.
