StateComponent

The StateComponent is used to define components that contain differential equations.

The user must define a function that returns the initial condition (GetInitialConditions) and the calculation of the state derivative (CalcStateDerivatives). In case of hybrid systems (discrete), then one must define the event polling (CheckForEvent and TriggeredOnSign) and event handle functions (EventHandler), while also notify that the component contains discrete events (HasDescreteEvent).

Parameter Type Description
name String Name of the state component (required).
Function Description
std::vector< Real > GetInitialConditions() const Interface.
std::vector< Real > CalcStateDerivatives(Real t, std::vector< Real > x0) const Calculates the state derivative xdot = f(t, x).
bool HasDiscreteEvent() const If this component models a hybrid system (discrete events) then one should make this function true.
int TriggeredOnSign() const If +1, then triggered on rising sign transition.
Real CheckForEvent(Real t, std::vector< Real > x) const Implements a zero crossing function that signifies an event.
std::vector< Real > EventHandler(Real t, std::vector< Real > x) const A function that is called when an event is detected and returns a the new state.
