Book Description
Written by a professor with extensive teaching experience, System Dynamics and Control with Bond Graph Modeling treats system dynamics from a bond graph perspective. Using an approach that combines bond graph concepts and traditional approaches, the author presents an integrated approach to system dynamics and automatic controls.
The textbook guides students from the process of modeling using bond graphs, through dynamic systems analysis in the time and frequency domains, to classical and state-space controller design methods. Each chapter contains worked examples, review exercises, problems that assess students’ grasp of concepts, and open-ended “challenges” that bring in real-world engineering practices. It also includes innovative vodcasts and animated examples, to motivate student learners and introduce new learning technologies.
Editorial Reviews
Review
“Bond Graphs provide an ideal platform to introduce undergraduate students to dynamic system modeling as it demonstrates the commonality of all energy-based systems. … While other texts present bond graphs and their utility in modeling dynamic systems, this text appears especially suited to use in a first undergraduate course. The prose is clear and understandable, and the organization of the material provides a logical presentation.” ―Peter J. Gorder, Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, University of Colorado at Colorado Springs
From the Back Cover
This textbook treats system dynamics from a bond graph perspective. It guides students from the process of modeling using bond graphs, through dynamic systems analysis in the time and frequency domains, to classical and state-space controller design. Although established texts exist for system dynamics, bond graph modeling, and automatic controls, this book combines the three into a cohesive text optimized for upper-level undergraduates. It serves as a reference for practicing engineers as well as a textbook for system dynamics and controls courses that use bond graphs. It also includes real-world challenges, vodcasts, and animated examples.
