How to create the 3D mesh plot in Simulink

I am having simple m-code ..

[X,Y] = meshgrid(-8:.5:8); 
R = sqrt(X.^2 + Y.^2) + eps; 
Z = sin(R)./R; 
figure(1) 
mesh(Z)

and it displays

I want to do it in Simulink - Is it possible to do 3D mesh in SImulink - how?

Hi Jack,

Creating a 3D mesh directly in Simulink isn’t possible, as Simulink is primarily used for modeling, simulating, and analyzing dynamic systems. However, you can integrate MATLAB with Simulink to achieve this. Here’s a general approach:

1. Create the 3D Mesh in MATLAB: Use MATLAB functions like the one used above to create a 3D Mesh.
2. Integrate with Simulink: Use the MATLAB Function block in Simulink to call your MATLAB code that generates the 3D mesh.

Hope this helps!
