Introduction to the Simulation of Dynamics Using Simulink

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Simulation is a powerful tool for understanding and exploring the dynamics of systems. This text provides an introduction to simulation using Simulink examples throughout. Requiring no programming skills, it is ideal as a Simulink reference or as an introductory textbook for a one-semester undergraduate course. Along with attractive graphics and diagrams, the author includes hands-on examples and exercises from science, engineering, technology, and mathematical sciences. He also presents advanced material at the end of the book to prepare students for advanced and more specialized study in simulating systems.
