Paper title: ON SIMULATION OF ZENO HYBRID SYSTEMS
Author(s): VIRGINIA ECATERINA OLTEAN,
Abstract: The interaction of event-driven with time-driven dynamics in hybrid systems may lead
to so-called Zeno behaviour, characterized by accumulation of an infinite number of
events within a finite time-interval. Although real systems are not Zeno, hybrid models
may exhibit Zeno behaviour, due to modelling abstraction. Understanding this is
essential for numerical simulation of hybrid systems, which may become imprecise or
time-consuming. In this paper, some basic definitions from the theory of Zeno hybrid
systems are firstly overviewed, together with a Simulink model of a Zeno bouncing ball
model. For a Zeno water tank model, classic in the literature, a simulation approach
based on fixed-step discretization of the continuous state equations is proposed.
