MATLAB and Simulink Examples in Physics Courses

Michele McColgan, associate professor of physics at Siena College, shows how to add simple introductory activities and autograded assessments using MATLAB® and Simulink® to homework, quizzes, and exams in general and upper-level physics courses. Academic concepts in these courses include electricity and magnetism, electronics, thermal physics, and optics.

Applications of tools provided by MathWorks—as part of the Campus-Wide License available to Siena College—and used in this project include:

- MATLAB Grader™ for introducing computational thinking and automated assessment of 50 problems on circuit concepts
- MATLAB live scripts to learn the MATLAB environment for solving problems
- Simulink for designing circuit models, predicting behavior, and troubleshooting problems
- This how-to video was first presented January 28, 2021, as part of the PICUP Spring Webinar Series: Computation in Undergrad Physics with an Emphasis on Using MATLAB.
