This paper describes methods to model inventories from the APVIOBPCS family. It aims to examine the limits of modelling approaches within control-theoretic models using the Simulink package. Discrete and continuous time models were considered together with a finite pipeline delay and the...

Hybrid systems are dynamical systems composed of components with discrete and continuous behavior. Some systems change their structure during simulation, or their components behavior is essentially changing. This “structural dynamics” can be described in some modeling languages but the...
