Mechatronic Systems Design

Abstract

Mechatronic products are necessarily characterized by mechanically-oriented tasks. This means bodies with finite mass are to be moved in a purposeful manner subject to the effects of forces and torques. This movable structure represents the governing component of the controlled plant in a mechatronic system design. Thus, important aspects of mechatronic systems design include both a sufficient understanding of and a suitable abstract representational basis for the physical phenomena of dynamic mechanical structures.
