Machine Design is a text on the design of machine elements for the engineering undergraduates of mechanical/production/industrial disciplines. The book provides a comprehensive survey of machine elements and their analytical design methods. Besides explaining the fundamentals of the tools and techniques necessary to facilitate design calculations, the text includes extensive data on various aspects of machine elements, manufacturing considerations...

Engineering Science, Second Edition provides a comprehensive discussion of the fundamental concepts in engineering. The book is comprised of 16 chapters that provide the theories and applications of different engineering concepts. The coverage of the text includes statics (equilibrium and structures), dynamics (motions and vibrations), and energy and thermal systems. The book also discusses electrical circuits, including direct and alternating current...

Fully revised throughout, this abundantly illustrated reference describes proven mechanisms and mechanical devices. Each illustration represents a design concept that can easily be recycled for use in new or modified mechanical, electromechanical, or mechatronic products. Tutorials on the basics of mechanisms and motion control systems introduce you to those subjects or act as a refresher. This edition also contains new chapters on mechanisms for...

Working through this student-centred text readers will be brought up to speed with the modelling of control systems using Laplace, and given a solid grounding of the pivotal role of control systems across the spectrum of modern engineering. A clear, readable text is supported by numerous worked example and problems. * Key concepts and techniques introduced through applications * Introduces mathematical techniques without assuming prior knowledge *...
