+## Problem: Solve the system equations of

+## E x(t) = A x(t) + B e(t)
+##
+## y(t) = C x(t) + D e(t)
+##

+## in order to build
+## .
+## K x(t) = F x(t) + G u(t)
+##
+## y(t) = H x(t) + J u(t)
+##
+## Solution: Laplace Transformation
+## E s X(s) = A X(s) + B U(s) + B M Y(s) [1]
+##
+## Y(s) = C X(s) + D U(s) + D M Y(s) [2]
+##
+## solve [2] for Y(s)
+## Y(s) = [I - D M]^(-1) C X(s) + [I - D M]^(-1) D U(s)
+##
+## substitute Z = [I - D M]^(-1)
+## Y(s) = Z C X(s) + Z D U(s) [3]
+##
+## insert [3] in [1], solve for X(s)
+## X(s) = [s E - (A + B M Z C)]^(-1) (B + B M Z D) U(s) [4]
+##
+## inserting [4] in [3] finally yields
+## Y(s) = Z C [s E - (A + B M Z C)]^(-1) (B + B M Z D) U(s) + Z D U(s)
