Summary
"While most books on the subject present material only on sensors and actuators, hardware and simulation, or modeling and control, Mechatronics: An Integrated Approach presents all of these topics in a single, unified volume from which users with a variety of engineering backgrounds can benefit. The integrated approach emphasizes the design of mechatronic systems." "Mechatronics: An Integrated Approach seamlessly incorporates advanced theory and concepts, various considerations of practical applications including tools, instrumentation, design issues, control, and industrial techniques using a reader-friendly, snapshot style that is ideal for professionals as well as students with a basic engineering background."--BOOK JACKET.
