The book presents a state-of-art overview of numerical schemes efficiently solving the acoustic conservation equations (unknowns are acoustic pressure and particle velocity) and the acoustic wave equation (pressure of acoustic potential formulation). Thereby, the different equations model both vibrational- and flow-induced sound generation and its propagation. Latest numerical schemes as higher order finite elements, non-conforming grid techniques, discontinuous Galerkin approaches and boundary element methods are discussed. Main applications will be towards aerospace, rail and automotive industry as well as medical engineering. The team of authors are able to address these topics from the engineering as well as numerical points of view.

Dieses Lehrbuch behandelt die Dimensionierung, die Berechnung sowie die Analyse von Schaltungen und Geräten der analogen und digitalen elektrischen Messtechnik anhand von Übungsbespielen, die im Rahmen der Vorlesungen "Elektrische Messtechnik" "Computerunterstützte Messdatenerfassung" sowie angegliederten Rechenübungen ausgearbeitet wurden.

Die erläuterten Übungsaufgaben eignen sich sowohl zur Vorbereitung auf entsprechende Prüfungen als auch zur selbständigen Aneignung bzw. Vertiefung praxisrelevanter Kenntnisse auf dem Gebiet der modernen elektrischen Messtechnik.

This is the second, enhanced and updated edition of an essential text for students of mechatronics. It covers both the detailed physical modeling of mechatronic systems and their precise numerical simulation using the Finite Element (FE) method. New material includes a section discussing locking effects as occurring in the numerical computation of thin mechanical structures as well as a new chapter on computational aeroacoustics to study the complex phenomenon of flow induced noise.

Like the previous editions also the third edition of this book combines the detailed physical modeling of mechatronic systems and their precise numerical simulation using the Finite Element (FE) method. Thereby, the basic chapter concerning the Finite Element (FE) method is enhanced, provides now also a description of higher order finite elements (both for nodal and edge finite elements) and a detailed discussion of non-conforming mesh techniques. The author enhances and improves many discussions on principles and methods. In particular, more emphasis is put on the description of single fields by adding the flow field. Corresponding to these field, the book is augmented with the new chapter about coupled flow-structural mechanical systems. Thereby, the discussion of computational aeroacoustics is extended towards perturbation approaches, which allows a decomposition of flow and acoustic quantities within the flow region. Last but not least, applications are updated and restructured so that the book meets modern demands.
