Synopsis

"With the advent of readily available computer-based tools for analysis and design, modeling has become a critical first step of many system design and development projects. Model-based control and system monitoring has become prevalent. Currently, many undergraduate courses in modeling of physical systems introduce linear concepts before moving on to nonlinear and continuous systems. In this book, the authors use their extensive teaching experience to propose and alternative approach based on the premise that many modern engineering problems must be solved through an understanding of how devices and processes across energy domains interact. They prefer to avoid the classical approach of teaching only linear systems in favor of early introduction to fundamental physical and mathematical concepts necessary for modeling the types of realistic and complex effects that engineers will encounter in their careers. They teach nonlinear and continuous systems, as well as systems with multiple energy domains early in the program to give students a good grounding in the areas they will need in the professional arena."-- Provided by publisher.

À propos de l?auteur

Raul G. Longoria, Professor, Walker Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Texas at Austin. Professor Longoria has over 30 years of experience in the field and has taught the methods described in this book in undergraduate and graduate level courses. He has applied these multidisciplinary modeling and simulation methods in a wide-range of industry and government projects throughout his academic research and consulting career.

Joseph J. Beaman, Professor and former Department Chair (2001 to 2012) of Walker Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Texas at Austin, has more than 40 years of experience in the field. He was one of the founders of DTM Corporation (now merged with 3D systems). Professor Beaman was elected to the National Academy of Engineers and the National Academy of Inventors, given the CIRP Nicolau award, and elected Honorary Member of ASME.
