Abstract This paper introduces a methodology for one of the challenges regarding cyber-physical systems, ie modelling and control design them as hybrid systems. The proposed methodology comprises modules with specific steps to accomplish the tasks. Specifically, the paper aims to utilize hybrid systems framework onto the chosen hydraulic hybrid system with complex dynamics to showcase different aspects of hybrid systems. The mathematical model was derived using hybrid automata framework and then transformed into the linear form either using Jacobi matrices or using linear approximations without Jacobi matrices. After that the system was validated and analysed and the control design utilizing piecewise linear-quadratic regulator optimal control was proposed. Furthermore, parameters of control algorithm were tuned using particle swarm optimization algorithm. The whole logic, system dynamics and constrains are implemented within MATLAB/Simulink simulation environment using s -functions. The proposed methodology can be implemented on the various types of cyber-physical systems as far as they can be described as hybrid systems.

Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) will revolutionize how humans relate with the physical world around us. Many grand challenges await the economically vital domains of transportation, health-care, manufacturing, agriculture, energy, defence, aerospace and buildings. Exploration of these potentialities around space and time would create applications which would affect societal and economic benefit. This paper looks into the concept of emerging Cyber-Physical system, applications and security issues in sustaining development in various economic sectors; outlining a set of strategic Research and Development opportunities that should be accosted, so as to allow upgraded CPS to attain their potential and provide a wide range of societal advantages in the future.

The recent proliferation of embedded cyber components in modern physical systems [1] has generated a variety of new security risks which threaten not only cyberspace, but our physical environment as well. Whereas earlier security threats resided primarily in cyberspace, the increasing marriage of digital technology with mechanical systems in cyber-physical systems (CPS), suggests the need for more advanced generalized CPS security measures. To address this problem, in this paper we consider the first step toward an improved security model: detecting the security attack. Using logical truth tables, we have developed a generalized algorithm for intrusion detection in CPS for systems which can be defined over discrete set of valued states. Additionally, a robustness algorithm is given which determines the level of security of a discrete-valued CPS against varying combinations of multiple signal alterations. These algorithms, when coupled with encryption keys which disallow multiple signal alteration, provide for a generalized security methodology for both cyber-security and cyber-physical systems.
