Overview

Reflecting modelling and simulation in the area of dynamic systems, this text aims to provide comprehensive coverage of the modelling techniques of the major types of dynamic engineering systems, the solution techniques for the resulting differential equations for linear and nonlinear systems, and the attendant mathematical procedures related to the representation of dynamic systems and determination of their time and frequency response characteristics. It explains how to select the system component parameter values for static and dynamic performance specifications and limits.
