Abstract
In this paper we prove that a large class of linear evolution PDEs defines a Stokes-Dirac structure over Hilbert spaces. To do so, the theory of boundary control system is employed. This definition encompasses problems from mechanics, that cannot be handled by the seminal geometric setting given in [van der Schaft and Maschke, Hamiltonian formulation of distributed-parameter systems with boundary energy flow, 2002 ]. Many worked-out examples stemming from continuum mechanics and physics are presented in detail, and a particular focus is given on the functional spaces in duality at the boundary of the geometrical domain. For each example, the connection between the differential operators and the associated Hilbert complexes is illustrated.
