This is the second, enhanced and updated edition of an essential text for students of mechatronics. It covers both the detailed physical modeling of mechatronic systems and their precise numerical simulation using the Finite Element (FE) method. New material includes a section discussing locking effects as occurring in the numerical computation of thin mechanical structures as well as a new chapter on computational aeroacoustics to study the complex phenomenon of flow induced noise. | Numerical Simulation of Mechatronic Sensors and Actuators by Manfred Kaltenbacher, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
