Mechatronic Systems and Process Automation

The book discusses the concept of process automation and mechatronic system design while offering a unified approach and methodology for the modeling analysis automation and control networking monitoring and sensing of various machines and processes from single electrical-driven machines to large-scale industrial process operations. This step-by-step guide covers design applications from various engineering disciplines (mechanical chemical electrical computer biomedical) through real-life mechatronics problems and industrial automation case studies with topics such as manufacturing power grid cement production wind generator oil refining incubator etc.Provides step-by-step procedures for the modeling analysis control and automation networking monitoring and sensing of single electrical-driven machines to large-scale industrial process operations.Presents model-based theory and practice guidelines for mechatronics system and process automation design.Includes worked examples in every chapter and numerous end-of-chapter real-life exercises problems and case studies.
