Hybrid systems are defined as systems combining both continuous dynamics and discrete events. Such systems appear in different applications like robotic systems and automotive applications. Hybrid systems can be used to model various types of systems like systems with switching dynamics, systems interacting with logic elements or systems with non-linearities like saturation and dead-zone ER -
