Descripción
The Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) is a Spanish initiative, open to
international partnership, to construct a 10-m segmented mirror
telescope at the Roque de Los Muchachos Observatory, on the Island of La
Palma. The GTC first light will be at the end of 2002, while it will be
fully operational at the end of 2003. The GTC Global Model (GTCGM),
using MATLAB/SIMULINK, aims at verifying the design of the telescope
complies with the specifications set by the GTC Project Office. The
GTCGM can also provide evaluations of the individual contributions of
each simulated error, for the Error Budget verification.
