Out[3]=3

Connection with delays:

Out[4]=4

Connecting a standard linear system and an input linear system will give an affine model:

Out[1]=1
Out[2]=2

Connecting a standard linear or affine system with a nonlinear system gives a nonlinear model:

Out[1]=1
Out[2]=2

Generalizations & Extensions  (3)Generalized and extended use cases

Merge two systems:

Out[2]=2

Connect the corresponding inputs:

Out[2]=2

Sum the corresponding outputs:

Out[2]=2

Applications  (3)Sample problems that can be solved with this function

A function that connects any number of matching systems in parallel:

Connect a family of first-order systems in parallel:

Out[2]=2

Connect several multiple-input, multiple-output systems:

Out[3]=3

Construct a parallel RLC circuit:

Out[2]=2

Properties & Relations  (3)Properties of the function, and connections to other functions

SystemsModelParallelConnect is essentially a summation operation:

Out[1]=1

SystemsModelParallelConnect is a special case of SystemsConnectionsModel:

Out[2]=2

The common input and summer blocks:

Use SystemsConnectionsModel to specify the connections:

Out[5]=5

Merge the connections:

Out[6]=6

A parallel connection leaves the states of the subsystems unchanged:

Out[2]=2

The resulting system has at least as many inputs as each subsystem:

Out[3]=3
Out[4]=4

A similar result holds for the minimum number of outputs:

Out[5]=5
