Product Description

Mechatronics-the breakthrough concept in the design and analysis of electromechanical systems and the unified cornerstone of modern engineering. Microsystems-the future of technology, but fraught with the challenges inherent at small scales. Apply the power and versatility of mechatronics to microsystems and we find a way to attack, integrate, and solve a great variety of emerging engineering problems.Micromechatronics: Modelling, Analysis, and Design with MATLAB synthesizes traditional engineering topics and the latest technologies to build a solid understanding of the engineering underpinnings of integrated technologies and develop the modern picture of microelectromechanical engineering. Emphasizing the modeling, simulation, analysis, design, and implementation of high-performance mini-and microscale electromechanical systems, the authors develop the rigorous theory, demonstrate the application of theoretical results, and explore state-of-the-art technologies. MATLAB is used throughout the book to illustrate practical examples and help readers master this powerful, industry-standard software.The application of mechatronics, particularly micromechatronics, is an endless frontier. All engineers will soon need a working knowledge of the theoretical bases and their practical applications. Comprehensive in coverage and global in perspective, Micromechatronics: Modeling, Analysis, and Design with MATLAB helps build the background you need to design and analyze state-of-the-art systems and contribute to further advancements.

Sound book for the mechatronics designer
A first look to this book surprises pleasently: extensive scope and sound theoretical background. However, after closer reading, certain discontentment is starting to appear. As for as the most important topic for me was the micro electromechanical actuators modelling technique, I have missed coverage of the electrostatic MEMS related subject. Moreover, I have found the content of the book related more just to the mechatronics, not to the micromechatronics. The same with the Matlab related content: almost nothing except of the classical modelling technique of mechatronics systems. Nevertheless, it makes a positive impression and was usefull solving certain MEMS simulation issues.
