Behavior

E dx/dt = A x + B u; y = C x + D u; E must be nonsingular. The worked example connects this operation to signals in Lemonergy Studio.

Connected concepts

Limits and interpretation

  • Nonsingular E is solved with pivoted elimination at configuration time. Singular descriptor DAEs and algebraic state constraints are explicitly refused.
  • Shapes and element types are explicit. Values must be finite; automatic reshaping and unit conversion are not performed.
