Hi all, I have also faced this issue. As initially mentioned in this thread, Mathworks has provided a workaround which can also be found here: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/1454674-why-does-matlab-crash-on-linux-with-inconsistency-detected-by-ld-so-elf-dl-tls-c-597-_dl_allo
If you are like myself who works in a server environment and cannot update glibc, the good news is that this crash does not always happens. The crash is related to the order libraries are loaded to the memory. So if you managed to load the libraries before opening Simulink you are safe. I've found opening a live script and opening the .slx without opening the .prj helps avoid the crash. Also, once you open Simulink never close it :D Hopefully this will allow you to continue work until a proper fix is available. Thank You.
