ARGESIM Benchmark C13 'Crane and Embedded Control' is based on nonlinear and a linear continuous dynamics for a crane crab and on discrete control by a linear observer model. This solution makes use of the MATLAB/Simulink system in a 'mixed' manner. The continuous dynamics are modelled graphically in the Simulink environment -using partly connected blocks and partly MATLAB functions. The discrete control with observer model and the diagnosis is programmed in MATLAB, framed by a sampled date
