We study port-Hamiltonian systems on a familiy of intervals and characterise all boundary conditions leading to $m$-accretive realisations of the port-Hamiltonian operator and thus to generators of contractive semigroups. The proofs are…
In this paper, we consider linear boundary port-Hamiltonian distributed parameter systems on a time-varying spatial domain. We derive the specific time-varying Dirac structure that these systems give rise to and use it to formally establish…
