where J is the moment of inertia value.
Hybrid dynamics is central to the operation of the starter motor. Hybrid dynamics are implemented
as switch networks. Given that one of the constituent variables of a switch is always equal to zero, a
switch will never contribute any power to the system. A generalized bond graph model of the starter
motor is presented in Figure 2.7.
