I am trying to simulate a double pendulum on a gantry using simulink. The MATLAB function allows you to define the model. i'm using matrices.
I'm trying to get the displacement (x, theta1, theta2) but simulink keeps on giving me the same error no matter how I arrange the blocks.
Error in default port dimensions function of S-function 'double_pendulum/MATLAB total'. This function does not fully set the dimensions of output port 2 MY FUNCTION DECLARATION:
