FLUID POWER Generation, Transmission and Control
Jagadeesha T. Thammaiah Gowda
Fluid Power – Generation, Transmission and Control provides an integrated treatment of hydraulic systems for courses in undergraduate and postgraduate level. The stress is on interdisciplinary nature of subject, and examples have been drawn from various engineering disciplines to illustrate the basic concepts. A strong emphasis has been laid on theory and mathematical treatment of practical systems. Accompanied by more than 500 drawings, the book offers fundamental dynamics and control studies under various conditions. Emphasis has also been given on open-ended, design-oriented problems. Design equations along with solved examples and practice problems have also been included in the book to serve the needs of practicing engineers and students in graduate and undergraduate courses.
On the basis of their extensive experience in both theoretical and applied research, authors have tried their best to bring a systematic and unified treatment of fluid power for all level of experience. Adequate breadth and depth is made available to cover the syllabi of various universities in India. Moreover, several worked examples are taken from examination questions from various Indian universities. With a carefully balanced approach, the book provides an orderly and logical discussion of fluid power along with rigorous yet approachable mathematical development. Students appearing for competitive examinations like NET, GATE, and the professionals working in different R&D organizations would also find the book both stimulating and highly useful. The book also features extensive examples and case studies which can be reproduced and investigated using MATLAB.
