dynamic simulation

[Yansulu]

Bye to all,
I designed a small microcontroller-based device that implements a firmware for solving the problem of the reverse pendulum.
Before embarking on its construction I would like to simulate its operation in a virtual environment also to test the goodness of balance logic.
I know that in solidworks there is the possibility to simulate the movement by setting a function, but my problem would require to set up a virtual environment where the object should be subject to gravity force and I should be able to run the firmware somehow (for example linking somehow solidworks to mplab....I don't know...) getting a more truthful dynamic simulation possible.
I ask if something like this is possible in solidworks and if it is not what software I can use.

I'm not expert on solidworks, but simulations yes. I think you will never succeed in your intent with that instrument.
There are some problems that go beyond the dynamic problem. We are talking about a discreet time control of a continuous dynamic system, there are latency problems, jitter problems, calculation speed problems, distributions of unstable closed chain poles, and who has more to put them.

there are tools created specifically to do these things, like matlab, dymola, etc. not to use a baseball bat to sculpt the donatello david, risks not to come out alive...

all...Imho.

It was what I imagined. Maybe I can get simulink to digest a firmware written in c but it won't be a walk... it's quite extensive.
