This book is aimed to provide comprehensive and systematic knowledge of kinematic synthesis as developed up to date. Modern mechanical systems require advance kinematics knowledge to support mechanism design with sound theories and methods. The book includes not only the classical foundations of kinematic synthesis, but also the latest advances developed by the authors. Moreover, many examples are included to illustrate both methods and their supporting theory.
The focus is on systems of rigid bodies forming closed loops. The four-bar linkage, representing the foundations of...

This book provides qualitative and quantitative methods to analyze and better understand phenomena that change in space and time. An innovative approach is to incorporate ideas and methods from dynamical systems and equivariant bifurcation theory to model, analyze and predict the behavior of mathematical models. In addition, real-life data is incorporated in the derivation of certain models. For instance, the model for a fluxgate magnetometer includes experiments in support of the model.
The book is intended for interdisciplinary scientists in STEM fields, who might be interested...

An original method of investigation of the conjugate conductive-convective problem of periodic heat transfer is developed. The novelty of the approach is that a particular conjugate problem is replaced by a general boundary-value problem for the heat conduction equation in the solid. Within the framework of the hyperbolic model of thermal conductivity, the effect of self-reinforcement of the degree of conjugation by increasing the period of oscillations is found. The processes of hydrodynamics and heat exchange with periodic internal structure are considered: periodic model of turbulent...

This monograph contains an in-depth and coherent treatment of dimension-reduced modeling of blood flows on the level of large vessels (macrocirculation). The authors reduce the complexity by combining a one-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation and a simplified FSI-concept. The influence of omitted vessels, which are subsequent to the outlets of larger vessels, is accounted for by systems of ordinary differential equations (0D models). The target audience primarily comprises research experts in the field of biomedical engineering, but the book may also be beneficial for graduate students alike.

This book focuses on selected methods of applied mathematics that are aimed at mathematical optimization, with an emphasis on their application in engineering practice. It delves into the current mathematical modeling of processes and systems, with a specific focus on the optimization modeling of technological processes. The authors discuss suitable linear, convex, and nonlinear optimization methods for solving problems in engineering practice. Real-world examples and data are used to numerically illustrate the implementation of these methods, utilizing the popular MATLAB software system and...
