Abstract

Modeling of systems in engineering involves two major stages. First, a system structure is derived that is based on the fundamental laws from physics that characterize the relevant processes. Second, specific parameter values are determined by minimizing the distance between the measured and simulated system outputs. In previous work, strategies for verified parameter identification using techniques from interval analysis were developed. These techniques are extended in this paper to a verified estimation for systems with non-smooth ordinary differential equations. Suitable experimental results for parameter estimation of a mechanical system with friction conclude this contribution to highlight the practical applicability of the developed identification procedure.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Optional: Trisectioning of \(\left[ {x_2^{\langle {l^*} \rangle }}\right] \) around the value zero if static and sliding friction are possible simultaneously in the simulation of the uncertain system model.

  2. 2.

    The presented integration procedure is implemented by using the toolbox IntLab, where a parallelization of the evaluation can be achieved in a straightforward manner if the state equations are evaluated after a distribution onto multiple CPU cores. The Parallel Computing Toolbox can be utilized for this purpose in Matlab.

  3. 3.

    The increase of the list length from \(L^\prime \) to \(3L^\prime \) has the advantage that information about the parameter splitting before the reset is not lost. Usually, the static friction is similar after standstill, even if it does not remain identical. In this case, the splitting information speeds up the identification and elimination of inconsistent subdomains.

  4. 4.

    Note that the interval replacement (Step I6) and the reduction of the interval number (Step I7) can be employed interchangeably.
