Bücher von Clarence W. de Silva

This introductory textbook on engineering system instrumentation emphasizes sensors, transducers, actuators, and devices for component interconnection. The book deals with "instrumenting" an engineering system through the incorporation of suitable sensors, actuators, and associated interface hardware including filters, amplifiers and other signal modifiers. In view of the practical considerations, design issues, and industrial techniques that are presented throughout the book, and in view of the simplified and snap-shot style presentation of more advanced theory and concepts, it also serves as a useful reference for engineers, technicians, project managers, and other practicing professionals in industry and in research laboratories.

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.
