Turning ssc file with written code into a simscape block

Hi! I have a ssc file with code for a custom component (a linear piecewise spring) that I would like to add to my simscape model. The custom component follows the default template. How can I implement the component code in my simscape model? Do I need to create a custom block?

Hi Arushi,

To my understanding you are looking to use the custom component made in ssc file in your simscape model.

You need to use The Simscape Component blockm, it lets you generate a Simscape™ block directly from a textual component file, skipping the library build process.

You can use the ssc_build command to generate a custom block library from a complete package of Simscape component files.

You can find the full process here Deploy Simscape language component as custom block in model diagram - MATLAB - MathWorks India.

For more information you can refer to:

Hope it helps!
