I am doing my thesis on a new seismic isolator and want to model it in the 8-story benchmark building. All the MATLAB files and Simulink blocks in this benchmark building are readable and editable. However, for the main analysis (S-function) a DLL file is referenced that cannot be opened. Somebody said it might be because it has been done in a very old version of MATLAB .
I would like to see if somebody has information on the issue. Please kindly guide me in what to do in order to be able to edit that file.
Thanks
DLL files (Dynamic Link Library) contain the main routines and subroutines of the software you are running. As far as I know they cannot be edited by end-users. But you can have a look at these 2 websites: http://www.wikihow.com/Open-DLL-Files
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18050615/how-to-open-dll-files-to-see-what-is-written-inside
the second one proposes the use of a decompiler.
