Diagnostic, Reliablility and Control Systems

by Cornelius T. Leondes (Editor)

Overview

The technical committee on mechatronics formed by the International Federation for the Theory of Machines and Mechanisms, in Prague, Czech Republic, adopted the following definition for the term: Mechatronics is the synergistic combination of precision mechanical engineering, electronic control and systems thinking in the design products and manufa

Editorial Reviews

The third in a set of five volumes on designing products at the interface between mechanics and electronics, which has become more common because of the development of powerful computers including microprocessors, application-specific integrated circuits, new computational techniques, and changes in the product design process. The seven studies discuss such topics as methods for detecting faults in industrial plants based on explicit models, soft sensors as an effective approach to improving control, a mechatronic systems approach to controlling robotic systems with actuator dynamics, process and control design for fast coordinate measuring machines, and techniques to stabilize mechatronic systems with sensor or actuator failures.
