Description for Emerging Actuator Technologies
Hardcover. Emerging Actuator Technologies - A Mechatronic Approach is application oriented and provides an integrated overview of emerging actuator technologies with rigorous sections on principles. Num Pages: 304 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: TJ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 237 x 165 x 22. Weight in Grams: 546.
Actuators are devices that convert electrical energy into mechanical work, traditionally used in electrical, pneumatic and hydraulic systems. As the demand for actuator technologies grows in biomedical, prosthetic and orthotic applications, there is an increasing need for complex and sophisticated products that perform efficiently also when scaled to micro and nano domains.
Providing a comprehensive overview of actuators for novel applications, this excellent book:
* Presents a mechatronic approach to the design, control and integration of a range of technologies covering piezoelectric actuators, shape memory actuators, electro-active polymers, magnetostrictive actuators and electro- and magnetorheological actuators.
