Object-Oriented Modeling of Hybrid Systems
Abstract
A new methodology for the object-oriented description of models consisting
of a mixture of continuous and discrete components is presented. The
object-oriented paradigm enables the user to describe such models in a modular
fashion that permits the reuse of these models independently of the environment
in which they are to be embedded. The paper explains the basic mechanisms
needed for object-oriented modeling of hybrid systems by means of language
constructs available in the object-oriented modeling language Dymola. It then
addresses more advanced concepts such as variable structure models containing
e.g. ideal electrical switches, ideal diodes and dry friction.
