System Dynamics for Engineering Students: Concepts and Applications features a classical approach to system dynamics. It is primarily designed to be utilized as a one-semester text for upper-level undergraduate system dynamics courses with an emphasis on mechanical, aerospace, or electrical engineering. The textbook comprises examples from compliant (flexible) mechanisms and micro/nano electromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS).
The third edition has been reorganized and updated to provide better flow for instructors and students, greater variety of topics, applications and real-world examples, addition of more basic/fundamental examples and end-of-chapter problems, as well as more comprehensive analysis/design examples and problems.
