An Up-To-Date Reference on the Latest Developments of Mechatronics
Geared toward engineers, designers, researchers, educators, and
students, Mechatronics: Fundamentals and Applications focuses on
integrating practice with theory relevant to electromechanical and
multidomain systems. A result of the Distinguished Visiting
Fellowship of the Royal Academy of Engineering, UK, held by
Clarence W. de Silva, the book contains 15 chapters written by
individual contributors, many of whom were speakers at the
workshop. What Are Mechatronic Systems? Divided into two sections,
this book covers the fundamentals and applications of mechatronic
devices and systems and emphasizes specific topics that include:
modeling and analytical formulations, simulation methods, design
approaches, control techniques, practical tools, and cutting-edge
systems and applications. The book highlights methodologies that
encompass modeling, analysis, design, control, monitoring,
diagnosis of mechatronic systems, and mechatronic systems and
technologies. In addition, it illustrates topics by using numerous
examples and various case studies from real implementations and
incorporates analytical methods, practical considerations, design
issues, and experimental techniques throughout the book. The text
also covers some state-of-the-art technologies such as Bio-MEMS,
self-powered systems and biologically inspired systems. A broad
introduction to the subject of mechatronic engineering, this book:
Presents the concepts of mechatronic design quotient (MDQ) and
design evolution through modeling, health monitoring, design expert
system, and evolutionary optimization Outlines the evolution of the
discipline of mechatronics from its early days leading up to the
present Includes the fundamental theory of mechanics of materials,
which can be employed for application in mechatronics Explores how
signals can be measured to avoid common pitfalls in signal
acquisition and processing Introduces and demonstrates
reinforcement learning or Q learning in physical robotic tasks, and
more Mechatronics: Fundamentals and Applications presents the
relevance of modeling, design, and instrumentation in the
development of a mechatronic system or product and serves as a
reference tool and informational resource for engineers in
industry, as well as researchers and students in the field of
mechatronics.
