schematic()
Visualization
schematic() is a MATLAB®-compatible visualization function for generate an svg schematic of a physical system with labeled component values. supports 10 system types: 'spring-mass-damper', 'pendulum', 'damped-pendulum', 'rlc-circuit', 'coupled-masses', 'rotational', 'dc-motor', 'thermal', 'tank', 'double-pendulum'. Run it online in your browser with SimLab — free, no install, no license required.

Frequently Asked Questions about schematic()
Is the schematic() function free to use in SimLab?
The browser workspace requires no MATLAB® license or installation. Connected features require network access and may have account, tier, availability, or usage limits. You can open schematic() and 510+ other MATLAB®-compatible function references at simulations4all.com/simlab.
Do I need to install MATLAB to use schematic()?
No. SimLab’s core parser, workspace state, and most functions run locally in your browser. The schematic() function requires no MATLAB® license or desktop software download.
What does schematic() do?
Generate an SVG schematic of a physical system with labeled component values. Supports 10 system types: 'spring-mass-damper', 'pendulum', 'damped-pendulum', 'rlc-circuit', 'coupled-masses', 'rotational', 'dc-motor', 'thermal', 'tank', 'double-pendulum'. It is a MATLAB®-compatible visualization function available in SimLab with the same calling syntax as MATLAB® — typically: schematic('spring-mass-damper', struct('m', 2, 'c', 0.5, 'k', 10)).
Can I run schematic() in my browser?
Yes. Open SimLab at simulations4all.com/simlab, write or paste code that calls schematic(), and run it. This function’s calculation runs locally in the browser. SimLab session analytics, sharing, feedback, and eligible acceleration have separate network boundaries.
