Mechatronics: Principles and Applications

Mechatronics is a core subject for engineers, combining elements of
mechanical and electronic engineering into the development of
computer-controlled mechanical devices such as DVD players or anti-lock
braking systems. This book is the most comprehensive text available for
both mechanical and electrical engineering students and will enable
them to engage fully with all stages of mechatronic system design. It
offers broader and more integrated coverage than other books in the
field with practical examples, case studies and exercises throughout
and an Instructor's Manual. A further key feature of the book is its
integrated coverage of programming the PIC microcontroller, and the use
of MATLAB and Simulink programming and modelling, along with code files
for downloading from the accompanying website.
Audience:
Undergraduate and postgraduate students in mechanical and electrical
engineering and on dedicated mechatronics courses; Also engineering
design and technology; IT and computing; aeronautical engineering;
control, systems and robotics; manufacturing and product design.
