Modelling of Simplified Dynamical Systems

This book is addressed to scientists, engineers and student of engineering departments, who make use of modelling and computer simulation. Since more and more physical experiments are being replaced by computer simulations the use of mathematical models of various engineering systems has become an especially important area of research. The book is devoted to selected problems of various engineering domains, such as control, electrical engineering or electrical metrology. They are based on different mathematical fields such as matrix theory, differential equations, function approximation with applications in dynamic modelling, methods of simplifying high-order models determining mapping errors of simplified models, their optimization and the synthesis of suitable input signals. The book is easy to read and understand because all the needed mathematical transformations and formula are derived and explained by means of the examples enclosed.
