SynopsisPresenting a comprehensive and efficient approach to the modelling, simulation, and analysis of dynamic systems, this undergraduate textbook addresses mechanical, electrical, thermal and fluid systems, feedback control systems, and their combinations. Ideal for a single-semester course in mechanical, aerospace and civil engineering., Presenting students with a comprehensive and efficient approach to the modelling, simulation, and analysis of dynamic systems, this textbook addresses mechanical, electrical, thermal and fluid systems, feedback control systems, and their combinations. It features a robust introduction to fundamental mathematical prerequisites, suitable for students from a range of backgrounds; clearly established three-key procedures - fundamental principles, basic elements, and ways of analysis - for students to build on in confidence as they explore new topics; over 300 end-of-chapter problems, with solutions available for instructors, to solidify a hands-on understanding; and clear and uncomplicated examples using MATLAB®/Simulink® and Mathematica®, to introduce students to computational approaches. With a capstone chapter focused on the application of these techniques to real-world engineering problems, this is an ideal resource for a single-semester course in dynamic systems for students in mechanical, aerospace and civil engineering.ivil engineering.ivil engineering.ivil engineering., Presenting students with a comprehensive and efficient approach to the modelling, simulation, and analysis of dynamic systems, this textbook addresses mechanical, electrical, thermal and fluid systems, feedback control systems, and their combinations.
