TI - System dynamics: modelling, simulation, and control of mechatronic systems SN - 9780470889084 AV - TA 168 .K37 2012 PY - 2012/// CY - Hoboken, New Jersey PB - Wiley KW - SYSTEMS ENGINEERING N1 - Includes index; Introduction -- Multiport systems and bond graphs -- Basic bond graph elements -- System models -- State-space equations and automated simulation -- Analysis and control of linear systems -- Multiport fields and juction structures -- Transducers, amplifiers, and instruments -- Mechanical systems with nonlinear geometry -- Distributed-parameter systems -- MAgnetic circuits and devices -- Thermofluid systems -- Nonlinear system simulation N2 - System Dynamics is a cornerstone resource for engineers faced with the evermore-complex job of designing mechatronic systems involving any number of electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, thermal, and magnetic subsystems. This updated Fourth Edition offers the latest coverage on one of the most important design tools today-bond graph modeling-the powerful, unified graphic modeling language. The only comprehensive guide to modeling, designing, simulating, and analyzing dynamic systems comprising a variety of technologies and energy domains, System Dynamics, Fourth Edition continues the previous edition's step-by-step approach to creating dynamic models ER -
