Mechanisms and Robots Analysis with MATLAB® (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The knowledge of how to solve advanced dynamic concepts is vitally important in such areas as robotics, spacecraft, and multibody systems. Mechanisms and Robots Analysis with MATLAB^® enables the reader to understand the mechanical behavior of complex engineering structures, mechanisms, and robots by discussing how to formulate the necessary mathematical equations and how to solve them using MATLAB^®.

This straightforward introduction to kinematics and dynamics using MATLAB^® is complemented by a range of learning techniques that will benefit instructors, students, and researchers. The explanations of sample problems provide a model for student problem-solving through analytical and numerical techniques. By reading the theory and solving the accompanying problems the reader will acquire a solid working knowledge of basic theories in mechanics and in MATLAB^®.

Theory, computational aspects, and applications of mechanisms and robots are covered from both mathematical and physical perspectives, and topics are presented clearly and simply. This allows fundamental principles to emerge through applications solved with MATLAB^® and emphasizes concepts, derivations, and interpretations of the general principles.

Mechanisms and Robots Analysis with MATLAB^® will allow students to build on their knowledge of mechanics and calculus to develop an interest in the classical principles of robotics and mechanism systems. Instructors will find this a useful teaching tool and even experts will be able to appreciate its clear, informative approach.

Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"Some critical mechanical engineering courses, such as dynamics of machinery, robotics, mechatronics, and advanced dynamics, etc., all involve extensive calculations. ... it is an excellent textbook or reference for the courses listed above. ... Without doubt, the most attractive feature of this book is the abundant MATLAB source code. ... This is an outstanding textbook on the MATLAB implementation of kinematics and dynamics of mechanisms and robots. It is suitable for graduat-level courses ... ." (Zhuang Li, International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration, Vol. 14 (3), 2009)

"The book deals with kinematics and dynamics of kinematical chains, which arise by the modeling of various mechanisms and robots. The main topic is the MATLAB's use to analyse and design such mechanical systems, and the demonstration of its convenience for these purposes. ... helpful to mechanical engineers, researchers and students." (Vladimir Evgenievich Puzyrev, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1229, 2012)
