Mechatronic Systems
Description
Mechatronic Systems introduces these developments by considering the dynamic modelling of components together with their interactions. The whole range of elements is presented from actuators, through different kinds of processes, to sensors.
Structured tutorial style takes learning from the basics of unified theoretical modelling, through information processing to examples of system development.
End-of-chapter exercises provide ready-made homework or self-tests.
Offers practical advice for engineering derived from experience with real systems and application-oriented research.

Person
Rolf Isermann is one of the leading academic figures associated with the novel and increasingly important field of mechatronics the most popular definition of which is:
Mechatronics is the synergistic integration of mechanical engineering with electronics and intelligent computer control in the design and manufacture of products and processes
He was chair of the 1st IFAC conference on Mechatronics. He has worked extensively with industry in recent years especially in the automotive sector. He is a fellow of the IEEE and a member of the IFAC general council.
