Introduction

Abstract

The presented book mainly addresses engineers and students of electrical engineering and information technology, who want to deduce the dynamic design of mechatronic devices within the scope of product development or research work. It concerns technical tasks which are closely interconnected with electronic, mechanical and acoustic functional elements. These electromechanical systems comprise many issues which can be solved effectively and well structured with the methods presented in this book. Thereby, tools of handling problems with network methods and methods of handling dynamic processes are primarily used, the electrical engineer is familiar with. The transducer elements working between the electrical and mechanical parts of a system and the general presentation of the system beyond transducer elements form the focus of the book. Particularly, the functional understanding of feedback mechanisms, e.g. from mechanical or acoustic subsystems into electrical subsystems, is enabled without any difficulty. Just these considerations are generally not obvious for the student of electrical engineering.
