# Summary

`Dynax` is a Python package for modeling nonlinear dynamical systems,
identifying their parameters from data, and designing linearizing feedback laws
for controlling their input-output behaviour.

Features

- Multiple shooting estimation
- Multiple experiment estimation
-

# Statement of need

- nonlinear compensation: no open-source software at all

Currently, there exists no tools in the Python ecosystem that facilitate parameter estimation
for differential equation systems (sometimes called "grey-box models"). There exists
[`nlgreyest`](https://se.mathworks.com/help/ident/ref/nlgreyest.html) in Matlab's Control
System toolbox and [`DiffEqParamEstim.jl`](https://docs.sciml.ai/DiffEqParamEstim/stable/) in Julia.

`Dynax` was designed to be used by researchers, students and engineers. It
is already used in a course at DTU for estimating the parameters of loudspeaker drivers instead of a commercial black-box solution.
The combination of design and ease of use make it possible to iteratively test and
develop dynamical system models for linearization of such transduers.
