Bungee jumping example
Here is a nice step-by-step example on how to determine which cord is the best for bungee-jumping depending on its spring constant.

Tutorials Simulink
A great page that lists different tutorials:
http://www.mathworks.com/academia/student_center/tutorials/simulink-launchpad.html
If you are unfamiliar with Simulink, you can start with Getting Started Video Tutorial, that introduces Simulink and presents its key features.
For further understanding, Mathworks offers an Interactive Simulink® Tutorial composed of several components. You need to register for it, but it takes only a few minutes and you have immediate access to it. The modules of interest:
Simulink On-Ramp (approximately 45 minutes)
Learn the basics of graphical modeling with Simulink.
-Introduction: What is Simulink? (3:17)
Introduces the basics of Simulink, its applications, and the tutorials
-Constructing and Running a Simple Model (13:37)
Cover the basics of constructing a simple model and changing block parameters
-Simulating a Model (10:58)
Understand how Simulink propagates signals in time and manage how it simulates
-Working with MATLAB® (9:07)
Pass data between Simulink and MATLAB
-Creating Subsystems (6:44)
Simplify your model by grouping blocks into subsystems
Using Simulink to Model Dynamic Systems (approximately 30 minutes)
-Modeling Transfer Functions (12:50)
Implement a derived transfer function, and understand how Simulink propagates a continuous dynamic system through time
-Modeling a System of Differential Equations (7:26)
Learn to use the integrator block to model differential equations
-Applying System Modeling to Controls (5:19)
Implement closed loop systems and its application to controls

Simulink
Simulink® is an environment for multidomain simulation and Model-Based Design for dynamic and embedded systems. It provides an interactive graphical environment and a customizable set of block libraries that let you design, simulate, implement, and test a variety of time-varying systems, including communications, controls, signal processing, video processing, and image processing.
