Modeling and control of complex physical systems
the port-Hamiltonian approach / Vincent Duindam, Alessandro Macchelli, Stefano Stramigioli ... (eds.)
xxvi, 423 pages : illustrations (some color) ; 24 cm.
"Energy exchange is a major foundation of the dynamics of physical systems, and, hence, in the study of complex multi-domain systems, methodologies that explicitly describe the topology of energy exchanges are instrumental in structuring the modeling and the computation of the systems' dynamics and its control. This book is the outcome of the European Project "Geoplex" (FP5 IST-2001-34166) that studied and extended such system modeling and control methodologies. This unique boo starts from the basic concept of port-based modeling, and extends it to port-Hamiltonian systems. This generic paradigm is applied to various physical domains, showing its power and unifying flexibility for real multi-domain systems."--P. [4] of cover.
