A Theoretical Framework to Determine RHP Zero Dynamics in Sequential Interacting Sub-Systems

A theoretical framework for determining the dynamics of interacting sub-systems is proposed in this paper. Specifically, a systematic analysis is performed that results in an indication about whether an MP or an NMP dynamics occurs in the analyzed process during operation. The analysis stems from th...
