Integrating physical modeling, mathematical analysis, and computer
simulation, Instrumentation Design Studies explores a wide variety
of specific and practical instrumentation design situations. The
author uses MATLAB (R) and SIMULINK (R) for dynamic system
simulation, Minitab (R) for statistical applications, and Mathcad
for general engineering computations. Rather than consult the
extensive manuals of these software packages, readers can access
handy, sharply focused material in the appendices to assist in
comprehension. After introducing the techniques behind the design
of experiments (DOE), the book discusses several technologies for
implementing vibration isolation, the design of a high-accuracy
pressure transducer, and the use of cold-wire thermometers for
measuring rapidly fluctuating fluid temperatures. It then focuses
on a basic piezoelectric actuator that provides translational
motions up to about 1mm full scale with nanometer resolution,
before covering instruments used to measure the viscosity of
liquids as well as two special classes of microphones (infrasonic
and ultrasonic) and their important specialized applications. The
book also presents statistical tools, such as hypothesis testing
and confidence intervals, for experiments; the design and
applications of thrust stands for measuring vector forces and
torques; and the analysis and simulation of a shock calibrator. It
concludes with a discussion of how shock testing machines can help
reduce or prevent mechanical failures. Spanning system dynamics,
measurement, and control, this book addresses the needs of
practicing engineers working in instrumentation fields. It focuses
on instruments for various applications, from geophysics to
mechanical and aerospace engineering.
