After Uchino's introduction of a new terminology,
'Micromechatronics' in 1979 for describing the application area of
'piezoelectric actuators', the rapid advances in semiconductor chip
technology have led to a new terminology MEMS
(micro-electro-mechanical-system) or even NEMS
(nano-electro-mechanicalsystem) to describe mainly thin film
sensor/actuator devices, a narrower area of micromechatronics
coverage. New technologies, product developments and
commercialization are providing the necessity of this major
revision. In particular, the progresses in high power transducers,
loss mechanisms in smart materials, energy harvesting and computer
simulations are significant. New technologies, product developments
and commercialization are providing the updating requirement for
the book contents, in parallel to the deletion of old contents.
Various educational/instructional example problems have been
accumulated, which were integrated in the new edition in order to
facilitate the self-learning for the students, and the quiz/problem
creation for the instructors. Heavily revised topics from the
previous edition include: high power transducers, loss mechanisms
in smart materials, energy harvesting and computer simulations New
technologies, product developments and commercialization helped
shape the updated contents of this book where all chapters have
been updated and revised. This textbook is intended for graduate
students and industrial engineers studying or working in the fields
of electronic materials, control system engineering, optical
communications, precision machinery, and robotics. The text is
designed primarily for a graduate course with the equivalent of
thirty 75-minute lectures; however, it is also suitable for
self-study by individuals wishing to extend their knowledge in the
field.
