This book deals with the design and control of hydraulic systems and using the system components signature as an input to control the system pump and monitoring the health of the system in real time environment. The book starts with listing some problems that can be encountered in the systems and redesigning the pump to improve the system performance. Then, the pipe dynamics is studied with different boundary conditions and the study includes the effect of the pump pulsation on the pipe response. New control strategy is introduced to minimize vibration levels, reduce the rise time, and to...

Introductory Guide on the Design of Aerospace Structures

Developed from a course taught at Concordia University for more than 20 years, Principles of Aeroelasticity utilizes the author s extensive teaching experience to immerse undergraduate and first-year graduate students into this very specialized subject. Ideal for coursework or self-study, this detailed examination introduces the concepts of aeroelasticity, describes how aircraft lift structures behave when subjected to aerodynamic loads, and finds its application in aerospace, civil, and...
