Abstract:Grafcet is a powerful graphical language dedicated to the specification of the behaviour of sequential logical systems. In industrial applications it is often used with systems which are not purely sequential but also include continuous parts. In this paper we propose extensions to Grafcet in order to allow the specification of hybrid systems. In this hybrid Grafcet, continuous behaviours specified by Laplace transfer functions or state equations can be associated with steps as G continuous actions D, initiali… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
