"Der Konzern ... ruft 850.000 Fahrzeuge wegen Funktionsproblemen in die Werkstatten zuruck."

Mangel stellen ein grosses wirtschaftliches Problem fur den Lieferanten dar, der sich mit verscharften Gewahrleistungspflichten auseinandersetzen muss. Von immer komplexer werdenden technischen Produkten erwartet man heute nicht nur gesteigerte Leistungsfahigkeit, sondern auch erhohte Zuverlassigkeit. Dieses Buch ist eine anwendungsorientierte Einfuhrung in die Zuverlassigkeitstheorie fur Fahrzeug- und Maschinenbauingenieure und bietet als Nachschlage- und Vertiefungswerk fur...

MEMS Vibratory Gyroscopes provides a solid foundation in the theory and fundamental operational principles of micromachined vibratory rate gyroscopes, and introduces structural designs that provide inherent robustness against structural and environmental variations. In the first part, the dynamics of the vibratory gyroscope sensing element is developed, common micro-fabrication processes and methods commonly used in inertial sensor production are summarized, design of mechanical structures for both linear and torsional gyroscopes are presented, and electrical actuation and detection...

The automobile is one of the inventions that has made a decisive contribution to human mobility, and consequently it has become an inseparable part of modern human society. However, it is through this widespread use that its negative impacts on the environment have become so highly visible. Achievements in improving the ecological characteristics of the automobile are highly impressive: a modern car emits only a fraction of the amounts of noise and exhaust pollutants produced by its predecessors 30 years ago. The contributions to this book were written by experts, most of whom have been...

In many industrial applications, the existing constraints mandate the use of controllers of low and fixed order while typically, modern methods of optimal control produce high-order controllers. Structure and Synthesis of PID Controllers seeks to start to bridge the resultant gap and presents a novel methodology for the design of low-order controllers such as those of the P, PI and PID types. Written in a self-contained and tutorial fashion, this research monograph first develops a fundamental result, generalizing a classical stability theorem - the Hermite-Biehler Theorem - and...

Adaptive Structural Systems with Piezoelectric Transducer Circuitry provides a comprehensive discussion on the integration of piezoelectric transducers with electrical circuitry for the development and enhancement of adaptive structural systems.

Covering a wide range of interdisciplinary research, this monograph presents a paradigm of taking full advantage of the two-way electro-mechanical coupling characteristics of piezoelectric transducers for structural control and identification in adaptive structural systems. Presenting descriptions of algorithm development,...

"Compressor Instability with Integral Methods" is a book, to bring together the quick integral approaches and advances in the field for the prediction of stall and surge problem in compressor. This book is useful for people involved in the flow analysis, design and testing of rotating machinery. For students, it can be used as a specialized topic of senior undergraduate or graduate study. The book can also be served as a self-study material to those who keen to acquire this knowledge.

In brief, this book focuses on the numerical/computational analysis for the effect of distorted...
