Mechatronics System Design responds to the emergence of a new
course in the ME curriculum which combines electrical components--such
as actuators and sensor--with mechanical elements in a system. The
book combines a fully-developed treatment of mechatronics with a collection
of class-tested case studies taken directly from projects students
at the University of Hartford have done with industry. These practical
case studies meet the need in ME for applied, design-oriented material
which gives the student a sense of what engineers do in actual practice.
Shetty and Kolk keep the technical and mathematical content of the
course at a level appropriate for senior/first year grad students.
- Case studies from industry (Ch. 8).
- Up-to-date coverage of actuators and
sensors.
- Integrates system simulation software
in mechatronics systems.
- Covers the use of actuators, transducers,
sensors, and microcontrollers in the design of engineering systems.
- Includes a review of key topics in controls
as needed.
