Abstract: In order to better take into account complexity of the heterogeneous dynamics in hybrid dynamic systems (HDS); we propose an unified and integrated fuzzy logic hybrid approach extending the concept of a classical switch bond graph modelling to a logical transition that takes into account a gradation instead of abrupt behavioural changes. It allows extension of the reachable states space where we propose real physical intermediate states (fluidification) that can be maintained with a sense. We also modify the mathematical structure of ideal primitive switching element (PSTS) by proposing a formula based on predictive and effective notions that fully comply with standard bond graph syntax and semantics as well as the Petri Nets, grants a freedom of the sampling instants according to the solver. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach on a flow control bi-tank and its usefulness both in academia and industrial field. Finally, we discuss some ideas about discrepancy between the level of mathematical abstraction and that of the physical level.
