Provides more balance between analytical and computational approaches Proposes an updated chapter sequence to improve the flow and connectivity of system dynamics topical coverage Comprises a separate chapter on coupled (multiple-field) systems with multiple actuation and sensing applications Includes a three-chapter Controls section to meet the needs of programs that cover both system dynamics and controls in the course Adds several new topics in almost all chapters Integrates the Lagrange's equations as another modelling technique of dynamic systems Utilizes both analytical methods and MATLAB/Simulink to solve examples Features a broader range of analysis and design applications including sensing and actuation examples, making the book even more appealing to mechanical and electrical engineering students and engineers Updates include many new and revised solved examples, as well as end-of-chapter problems with a wider engineering application variety.
