On 4 December 2025, Mathworks organised a seminar on Model-Based Design in Nantes.
Julien, Guillaume, and Thierry attended the event to engage in discussions with the Mathworks teams and hear feedback from industry professionals.
On the agenda :
- Stéphane Caro from LS2N (Laboratoire des Sciences du Numérique de Nantes) : in-depth exploration of the design and control of parallel cable robots.
- Innovative approaches to managing the complex dynamics of these systems. A presentation that effectively links research, modelling and industrial applications.
- Kévin Roblet and Magnus Nord from Mathworks : overview of Model-Based Design.
- Structured review of the benefits of MBD in complex projects. Focus on best practices in modelling, as well as new features in Matlab & Simulink. Highlighting MBD approaches to improve development reliability: requirements, modelling, simulation, MIL testing, real-time testing, code generation, certification, etc.
- Hadrien Pinault from Rehlko : feedback on generator modelling and energy optimisation.
- Use of MBD, MIL and HIL to structure the control architecture. The aim is to improve efficiency, reduce environmental impact and make testing more reliable.
- Lubin Kerhuel from Microchip Technology : demonstration of the workflow for directly targeting microcontrollers from Simulink.
- Practical case study of ‘embedded systems’ with the control of a miniature helicopter rotor. A presentation showing how to reduce the time between design and actual testing.
A day that confirms the central role of Model-Based Design in designing faster, better and with greater control.
