A Simulink Project is used for the study of Stewart platforms using Simscape.

From the [[https://mathworks.com/products/simulink/projects.html][Simulink project]] mathworks page:
#+begin_quote
  Simulink® and Simulink Projects provide a collaborative, scalable environment that enables teams to manage their files and data in one place.

  With Simulink Projects, you can:
  - *Collaborate*: Enforce companywide standards such as company tools, libraries, and standard startup and shutdown scripts. Share your work with rich sharing options including MATLAB® toolboxes, email, and archives.
  - *Automate*: Set up your project environment correctly every time by automating steps such as loading the data, managing the path, and opening the models.
  - *Integrate with source control*: Enable easy integration with source control and configuration management tools.
#+end_quote

The project can be opened using the =simulinkproject= function:

#+begin_src matlab
  simulinkproject('./');
#+end_src

When the project opens, a startup script is ran.
The startup script is defined below and is exported to the =project_startup.m= script.
#+begin_src matlab :eval no :tangle ./src/project_startup.m
  project = simulinkproject;
  projectRoot = project.RootFolder;

  myCacheFolder = fullfile(projectRoot, '.SimulinkCache');
  myCodeFolder = fullfile(projectRoot, '.SimulinkCode');

  Simulink.fileGenControl('set',...
      'CacheFolder', myCacheFolder,...
      'CodeGenFolder', myCodeFolder,...
      'createDir', true);

  %% Load the Simscape Configuration
  load('mat/conf_simscape.mat');
#+end_src

When the project closes, it runs the =project_shutdown.m= script defined below.
#+begin_src matlab :eval no :tangle ./src/project_shutdown.m
  Simulink.fileGenControl('reset');
#+end_src

The project also permits to automatically add defined folder to the path when the project is opened.
