Physical systems driven away from equilibrium by an external controller dissipate heat to the environment; the excess entropy production in the thermal reservoir can be interpreted as a "cost" to transform the system in a finite time. The…
Control theory often takes the mathematical model of the to-be-control-led system for granted. In contrast, port-Hamiltonian systems theory bridges the gap between modelling and control for physical systems. It provides a unified framework…
