A system that combines a microfilm analog system with an electronic, digital technology.
a combination of solar power and generator power
a combination of the working-along and co-working systems
a discrete program within an analog environment that can be modelled by hybrid automata that are
a dynamical system whose behavior exhibits both discrete and continuous change
a dynamical system with both discrete and continuous state changes
a dynamic system that consists of discrete and continuous components with complex interactions (cf
a system that combines more than one technology in one control
a system with both discrete behavior and continuous behavior
A power system consisting of two or more energy sources (e.g., a PV array and a wind generator.)
Power generating system which combines standard engines or gas turbines with solid oxide fuel cells.
A system that combines two or more communication technologies.
A power system consisting of two or more power generating subsystems (e.g. the combination of a wind turbine and a photovoltaic system).
A renewable or alternative energy system that uses two different sources for power, such as wind generators and solar photovoltaic arrays together to produce electricity.
A fuel-saving powertrain that combines a small petrol or diesel engine with an electric motor. The engine drives the car's wheels while charging a battery so the motor can do some of the work. It can also provide regenerative braking, where energy normally lost in heat through the brakes is transferred (through a generator) back into electricity to be stored in the battery. It's expensive technology and far from the final word in alternative energy sources and only a handful of cars in Australia use it, including the Toyota Prius and Honda Civic Hybrid.
A PV system that includes other sources of electricity generation, such as wind or diesel generators.
A term used to describe a telephone system that has attributes of both Key Systems and PBXs. Usually means that incoming lines (trunks) appear on the phone set, and outbound calls require the use of an access code (typically a "9").
For a solarized heat engine, a hybrid engine is one that has been designed to operate with solar power or another heat source, such as natural gas. In principle, a hybrid system could provide power 24 hours per day, using solar energy when the sun is available and another energy source the rest of the time.
A plant breeding system to facilitate hybrid seed variety development in plant breeding programmes. Typically comprising two components: one line which does not produce pollen and another line which restores fertility in hybrid progeny.
System that employs both analog and digital techniques.
A hybrid system is a dynamic system which exhibits both continuous and discrete dynamic behavior — a system that can both flow (described by a differential equation) and jump (described by a difference equation). Often, the term "hybrid dynamic system" is used, to distinguish over hybrid systems such as those that combine neural nets and fuzzy logic, or electrical and mechanical drivelines. A hybrid system has the benefit of encompassing a larger class of systems within its structure, allowing for more flexibility in modeling dynamic phenomena.
