    This paper considers in detail \[ \begin{aligned} \dot L&= \tau(N(t,L))L- LN(t,L),\\ \dot L&= N(t,L)L+ Lk(N(t,L)),\\ \dot L&= N_1(t,L)L- LN_2(t,L),\\ \dot L&= N_1(t,L)L- LN_2(t,L), \end{aligned} \tag{1} \] where \(N_1,N_2\) are either skew-symmetric or skew Hermitian, and \(\tau\) and \(k\) denote an arbitrary second-order automorphism and anti-automorphism of \(K^{n\times n}\), respectively. Here the author constructs additive generalizations of (1) similar to the additive generalizations of the Lax equation, and analyzes their properties. To the right-hand sides of such matrix differential equations the author adds appropriate terms chosen in such a way that it is possible to obtain important information about the dynamics without solving the equations. See the author's previous articles [J. Phys. A, Math. Gen. 32, 3155--3167 (1999; Zbl 0989.37053); J. Geom. Phys. 38, 217--252 (2001; Zbl 1001.37065)].
