contents New sensitivity-based methods are developed for determining identifiability and observability of nonsmooth input-output systems. More specifically, lexicographic calculus is used to construct nonsmooth sensitivity rank condition (SERC) tests, which we call lexicographic SERC (L-SERC) tests. The introduced L-SERC tests are: (i) practically implementable and amenable to large-scale problems; (ii) accurate since they directly treat the nonsmoothness while avoiding, e.g., smoothing approximations; and (iii) analogous to (and indeed recover) their smooth counterparts. To accomplish this, a first-order Taylor-like approximation theory is developed using lexicographic differentiation to directly treat nonsmooth functions. A practically implementable algorithm is proposed that determines partial structural identifiability or observability, a useful characterization in the nonsmooth setting. Lastly, the theory is illustrated through an application in climate modeling.
