please show the simulink model and equations used to create the simulation A team of engineering students is planning to sign up at the Bungee Adventures to jump off giant 200 ft
(60.9 m) tall trees in a Redwood Forest this summer. Here is the Bungee Adventures website: Bungee
Adventures On the other side of every fear is a freedom
Three bungee videos: Tree Bungee Bungee Adventures
The students in this group weigh between 50 kg (110 lbs.) and 90 kg (200 lbs.). This is a dangerous adventure.
It is important to analyze the bungee jumping details for a 50-kg mass and a 90-kg mass using a 10-meter
long bungee line prior to jumping off a rope tight between trees in person.
The equation to use for the analysis is Newtons Second Law,
F = ma
where F is the sum of the gravitational, aerodynamic drag, and bungee forces acting on the jumper, m is the
mass of the jumper, and a is the acceleration.
Define the distance the jumper falls as the variable x. Distance is a function of time, x(t). The jumpers
velocity and acceleration are then represented as x and x, respectively. The Newtons equation to solve for
acceleration is:
x= F / m
Next, determines the forces making up F.
The gravitational force will be the jumpers weight, which is:
W = m g
g is about 9.81 m/s2 at the surface of the earth.
The aerodynamic drag, D, will be proportional to the square of the jumpers velocity,
D = c (x)2
The constant c can be computed from the 55 m/s free-fall terminal velocity. At 55 m/s, the aerodynamic drag is
equal to the weight of the jumper, so c can be determined using:
c = D /(x)2= W /(55 m/s)2
Finally, after the jumper has fallen beyond the bungee cord length, the slack in the bungee will be eliminated,
and it will begin to exert an arresting force, B, of 60 N for every meter that it is stretched beyond 10 m.
B =60(x -10)
The bungee also has a viscous friction force, R, once it begins to stretch, which is given by:
R =3 x
Thus, there will be two equations for computing the acceleration. The first equation will be used when the
distance x is less than or equal to 10 m:
x= F / m =(W D)/ m
A second equation will be used when x is greater than 10 m:
x= F / m =(W D B R)/ m
Simulation:
Create one Simulink MATLAB Function model (using the MATLAB Function block) to simulate a 50
kg person bungee jumping [4 pt] off the tree for the first 300 seconds [1 pt].
Add mux [1 pt], display [1 pt], scope [1 pt], and To File[2 pt] blocks in the Simulink model to save the
simulation result, the simulation time (t), distance (x)[1 pt], velocity (x)[1 pt] and acceleration (x)[1 pt]
to a .mat file.
Adjust the Simulink models maximum step size to 0.1 or smaller [1 pt] to ensure the simulation will
compute enough points for obtaining accurate maximum and minimum values of the simulation.
Create another Simulink model to simulate a 90 kg person bungee jumping [4 pt] off the tree for the
first 300 seconds [1 pt].
Add mux [1 pt], display [1 pt], scope [1 pt], and To File[2 pt] blocks collect the Simulink simulation data,
the simulation time (t), distance (x)[1 pt], velocity (x)[1 pt] and acceleration (x)[1 pt] to a .mat file.
Adjust the Simulink models maximum step size to 0.1 or smaller [1 pt] to ensure the simulation will
compute enough points for obtaining accurate maximum and minimum values of the simulation.
Create a MATLAB program that will automatically open both Simulink models [2 pt] and run both
Simulink models [2 pt]. Load both .mat files generated by the Simulink models to the MATLAB
program. Extract t [2 pt], x [2 pt], x[2 pt], and x[2 pt] from the Simulink results.
Add a MATLAB built-in ode45 function [2 pt] in the MATLAB program to integrate the 50 kg person
bungee jumping equations [4 pt]. Obtain distance (x)[1 pt], velocity (x)[1 pt], and compute acceleration
(x)[4 pt] for the first 300 seconds [1 pt].
Add another MATLAB built-in ode45 function [2 pt] in the MATLAB program to integrate the 90 kg
person bungee jumping equations [4 pt]. Obtain distance (x)[1 pt], velocity (x)[1 pt], and compute
acceleration (x)[4 pt] for the first 300 seconds [1 pt].
Generate one figure [2 pt] that contains 3x2 subplots [2 pt] to plot and compare the 50 kg person
bungee jumping Simulink solution and the 50 kg person bungee jumping ode45 solution side-by
side.
The figure should include the following:
o Plot the bungee jumpers distance (x) vs. t chart with the Simulink Solution on the left [1 pt] and
plot the x vs. t chart using the ode45 solution on the right [1 pt].
o Plot the bungee jumpers velocity (x) vs. t chart with the Simulink Solution on the left [1 pt]
and plot the x vs. t chart using the ode45 solution on the right [1 pt].
o Plot the bungee jumpers acceleration (x) vs. t chart with the Simulink Solution on the left [1
pt] and plot the x vs. t chart using the ode45
