Viable System Phenomena

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

System Phenomena (also known as and further noted as System Identification and Modeling) is the science of observing the behaviour of a System. The Classification of a Dynamic system describes how systems are grouped with certain characteristics into special classes and identify mathematical techniques that apply to these classes of problems.

[edit] In particular most systems have five characteristics:

  1. Linear or Nonlinear
  2. Constant or Variable Coefficient
  3. Forced or Unforced
  4. Lumped or Distributed Parameter
  5. Deterministic or Stochastic
