This is a simple example of open-loop motion planning on a mass-spring model. A mass is attached to a spring, and the other end of the spring is attached to a linear motor. The position and the speed of the mass are used as states of the model. In this example, the position and the speed will be steered from an initial state to a desired final state. To do this, a discrete-time input is precalculated, which is then used to simulate the model using Simulink.
