Nonlinear Electromechanical Circuit with Partitioning Solver

This example models a DC Motor controlled by a ramp input. The resulting system of equations contains switched linear and nonlinear elements brought about by the Diode and Rotational Friction blocks respectively. However, the Partitioning solver is able to convert this system into several smaller sets of linear time-invariant and switched linear equations connected by nonlinear functions. This helps in reducing computational cost, which in turn yields faster simulation.
