Using jNL Models

In order to more accurately simulate a given process, you can use a jNL object as the Plant. This allows you to use nonlinear (or linear) Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) to represent the Plant Dynamics, while retaining a simpler, linear state space model as the internal controller model. See the help section on jNL objects on how to create the Plant, and the limit of the associated object.

Note you must still supply a linear time invariant (lti) model for the controller, as the jMPC object does not currently support nonlinear models.

Due to increased computation of the simulation (an ODE solver), on older machines you may experience a noticeable performance slow down in the GUI.
