This book covers sensors and multiple sensor systems, including sensor networks and multi-sensor data fusion. It presents the physics and principles of operation and discusses sensor selection, ratings and performance specifications, necessary hardware and software for integration into an engineering system and signal processing and data analysis. Additionally, it discusses parameter estimation, decision making and practical applications. Even though the book has all the features of a course textbook, it also contains a wealth of practical information on the subject.

Suitable for students of engineering, this text offers the multidisciplinary approach needed to develop a foundation in mechatronics. It covers electrical and mechanical components, sensors and instrumentation, drives and actuators, controls, signal processing, component interfacing, modeling, and design.

A combination of research, teaching and industrial applications in the field of intelligent and fuzzy-logic control. The book introduces traditional control techniques and contrasts them with intelligent control. Several methods of representing and processing knowledge are presented.

A reference for modeling, analyzing, simulating, measuring, monitoring, testing, controlling, and designing for vibration in engineering systems. It offers problems and examples, a chapter on human response to vibration, and the inclusion of LabVIEW , SIMULINK[registered], and MATLAB[registered] software tools.
