- Refer to this Documentation page on how to interface between two domains:
- You can also find a similar example of interfacing in the Joint Limits and Friction Methods in a Hinge model (linked below), in the Simscape Multibody Multiphysics Library.
- Simscape lets you make your own custom blocks for such cases. The Documentation page linked below can guide you in doing so:
