Dynamic Systems: Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis

Presenting students with a comprehensive and efficient approach to the modelling, simulation, and analysis of dynamic systems, this textbook addresses mechanical, electrical, thermal and fluid systems, feedback control systems, and their combinations. It features a robust introduction to fundamental mathematical prerequisites, suitable for students from a range of backgrounds; clearly established three-key procedures - fundamental principles, basic elements, and ways of analysis - for students to build on in confidence as they explore new topics; over 300 end-of-chapter problems, with solutions available for instructors, to solidify a hands-on understanding; and clear and uncomplicated examples using MATLAB(R)/Simulink(R) and Mathematica(R), to introduce students to computational approaches. With a capstone chapter focused on the application of these techniques to real-world engineering problems, this is an ideal resource for a single-semester course in dynamic systems for students in mechanical, aerospace and civil engineering.

本教科書為學生提供了一種全面且高效的方法，用於動態系統的建模、模擬和分析。它涵蓋了機械、電氣、熱力和流體系統、反饋控制系統以及它們的組合。教科書首先介紹了基本的數學先備知識，適合不同背景的學生；然後明確建立了三個關鍵步驟 - 基本原理、基本元素和分析方法，供學生在探索新主題時建立自信；教科書提供了300多個章末問題，並提供了解答供教師使用，以鞏固學生的實踐理解；教科書使用MATLAB(R)/Simulink(R)和Mathematica(R)進行了清晰簡單的示例，以介紹學生計算方法。最後一章專注於將這些技術應用於實際的工程問題，使其成為機械、航空航天和土木工程學專業學生單學期動態系統課程的理想資源。
