Design rules for actuators in active mechanical systems

Design Rules for Actuators in Active Mechanical Systems deals with the formulation of model-based design rules to be used in the conception of optimized mechatronic and adaptronic systems. The book addresses the comparison of different actuator classes for given applications and offers answers to the followingquestions: What is the relationship between actuator geometry and primary output quantities? How scalable are actuators based on the same principle? How are energetic output quantities (work and power) related to mechanical load and geometry? How should actuators be designed and sized to obtain the best performance for the chosen actuator kind, and for a given application? "Design Rulesfor Actuators in Active Mechanical Systems" will be of use to industry professionals, such as actuator and machine designers, as well as to researchers andstudents of mechanical engineering, mechatronics, and electrical engineering.Presents a methodology for the design and optimisation of mechatronic and adaptronic systems INDICE: 1 Actuator Principles and Classification.- 2 Actuator Design Analysis.- 3 Design Analysis of Solenoid Actuators.- 4 Design Analysis of Moving Coil Actuators.- 5 Design Analysis of Hydraulic Actuators.- 6 Design Principles for Linear, Axial Solid-State Actuators.
