Understanding Electro-Mechanical Engineering: An Introduction to Mechatronics by Lawrence J. Kamm
A Volume in the IEEE Press Understanding Science & Technology Series
"An outstanding job in identifying and describing virtually all electro-mechanical devices in existence today." --Dennis Lieu, University of California, Berkeley

"Thorough, detailed, and written at a comprehensible level." --Seymour Kremen, Engineering Consultant

"Larry Kamm combines electrical and mechanical engineering to the highest degree of theoretical knowledge and practical experience." --Jacob Rabinow, Consultant

Widely practiced, but rarely taught, the principles of electro-mechanical (mechatronic) devices and systems are of more relevance to electrical engineering than ever before. Electro-mechanical devices such as keyboards, printers, and hard and floppy disk drives are parts of every computer system. Microminiature electro-mechanical devices etched from silicon are now key transducers and motors. With a focus on electro-mechanical devices and systems in a variety of fields, this accessible introductory text brings you coverage of the full range of electro-mechanical devices used today. You'll gain a comprehensive understanding of the design process and get valuable insights into good design practice. Understanding Electro-Mechanical Engineering will be of interest to anyone in need of a non-technical, interdisciplinary introduction to the thriving field of mechatronics.
