Servo Motors and Industrial Control Theory presents the fundamentals of servo motors and control theory in a manner that is accessible to undergraduate students, as well as practitioners who may need updated information on the subject. Graphical methods for classical control theory have been replaced with examples using mathematical software, such as MathCad and MatLab, to solve real-life engineering control problems. State variable feedback control theory, which is generally not introduced until the Masters level, is introduced clearly and simply for students to approach complicated problems

This detailed reference provides guidelines for the selection and utilization of electric motors for improved reliability, performance, energy-efficiency, and life-cycle cost. Completely revised and expanded, the book reflects the recent state of the field, as well as recent developments in control electronics, the economics of energy-efficient motors and systems, and advanced power electronic drivers. It includes five new chapters covering key topics such as the fundamentals of power electronics applicable to electric motor drives, adjustable speed drives and their applications, advanced swit

This volume examines a number of different molecular motors that utilize ATP. The molecular machines to be discussed include ATP synthase, myosin, kinesin, DNA helicases, DNA topoisomerases, chaperones and bacterial rotory motors. The discussion of these various molecular motors is rarely undertaken in one volume and will serve as a great resource for scientists studying structure and function of multiprotein complexes as well as those working on energy coupling mechanisms. The areas of research presented in this volume do not normally overlap, and yet they share common mechanisms.

Controlling the level of noise in electrical motors is critical to overall system performance. However, predicting noise of an electrical motor is more difficult and less accurate than for other characteristics such as torque-speed. Recent advances have produced powerful computational methods for noise prediction, and Noise of Polyphase Electric Motors is the first book to collect these advances in a single source. It is also the first to include noise prediction for permanent magnet (PM) synchronous motors.Complete coverage of all aspects of electromagnetic, structural, and vibro-acoustic noi

In this book, modeling and control design of electric motors, namely step motors, brushless DC motors and induction motors are considered. The book focuses on recent advances on feedback control designs for various types of electric motors, with a slight emphasis on stepper motors. For this purpose, the authors explore modeling of these devices to the extent needed to provide a high-performance controller but at the same time amenable to model-based nonlinear designs. The control designs focus particularly on recent robust adaptive nonlinear controllers to attain high performance. It is shown

Customer Reviews: Great reference January 12, 2009Gregory Rosenberg (USA)Great reference manual for my Pontiac to pinpoint issues I was having. Diagrams were a little confusing at times, and not as detailed as I would have hoped, but for someone like me who does not "live and die by my car", it was a great reference manual to have around... if nothing else, it will save me some bucks at the mechanic down the road. good content, poor quality print August 4, 2005Joerg Meyer (Irvine, CA, U.S.A.)2 out of 2 found this review helpfulI found the book very useful in m
