Abstract :
The paper discusses the generation of symbolic models of complex systems using hierarchical bond graphs. The uses to which such models can be put include simulation code generation, linearisation, system inversion for actuator sizing and controller design. This methodology is illustrated with reference to three modelling projects: aircraft systems, plastic-onto-wire extrusion and a gravity wave detector
