Bond graphs provide a way for building physical models of complex systems.
In one of our research projects, we have developed a tool for building bond graph models that lets us capture the physical components and their interactions in a system. The student will be learning about the bond-graph modeling technique, and about the tool supporting it. We plan to integrate the hybrid observer with Matlab, such that Matlab could be used to generate real-time data, which is then fed into the hybrid observer. The student should be using this setup to perform the simulation experiments.
