Publisher's Synopsis
Mechatronics: Principles and Applications, Second Edition, describes how components can be used and interfaced to create the system. Topics deal with hard disk drive technology, fluidic automation, UAV Vision System, vibration monitoring and suppression in steelmaking plants, materials machining and smart composites. These examples show the reader how innovative technologies allow for the implementation of a sort of artificial intelligence. The book has been completely updated with current technologies in mechatronics, making it ideal for practitioners who need to understand how to integrate components. It is also a great source for students completing both Bachelor's and Master's degrees.
