Wolfgang Borutzky - Böcker

The author presents current work in bond graph methodology by providing a compilation of contributions from experts across the world that covers theoretical topics, applications in various areas as well as software for bond graph modeling. It addresses readers in academia and in industry concerned with the analysis of multidisciplinary engineering systems or control system design who are interested to see how latest developments in bond graph methodology with regard to theory and applications can serve their needs in their engineering fields. This presentation of advanced work in bond graph modeling presents the leading edge of research in this field. It is hoped that it stimulates new ideas with regard to further progress in theory and in applications.

Nowadays, engineering systems are of ever-increasing complexity and must be c- sidered asmultidisciplinary systems composed of interacting subsystems or system components from different engineering disciplines. Thus, an integration of various engineering disciplines, e.g, mechanical, electrical and control engineering in ac- current design approach is required. With regard to the systematic development and analysis of system models,interdisciplinary computer aided methodologies are - coming more and more important. A graphical description formalism particularly suited for multidisciplinary s- tems arebondgraphs devised by Professor Henry Paynter in as early as 1959 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA and in use since then all over the world. This monograph is devoted exclusively to the bond graph methodology. It gives a comprehensive, in-depth, state-of-the-art presentation including recent results sc- tered over research articles and dissertations and research contributions by the - thor to a number of topics. The book systematically covers the fundamentals of developing bond graphs and deriving mathematical models from them, the recent developments in meth- ology, symbolic and numerical processing of mathematical models derived from bond graphs. Additionally it discusses modern modelling languages, the paradigm of object-oriented modelling, modern software that can be used for building and for processing of bond graph models, and provides a chapter with small case studies illustrating various applications of the methodology.

This book shows in a comprehensive presentation how Bond Graph methodology can support model-based control, model-based fault diagnosis, fault accommodation, and failure prognosis by reviewing the state-of-the-art, presenting a hybrid integrated approach to Bond Graph model-based fault diagnosis and failure prognosis, and by providing a review of software that can be used for these tasks.The structured text illustrates on numerous small examples how the computational structure superimposed on an acausal bond graph can be exploited to check for control properties such as structural observability and control lability, perform parameter estimation and fault detection and isolation, provide discrete values of an unknown degradation trend at sample points, and develop an inverse model for fault accommodation. The comprehensive presentation also covers failure prognosis based on continuous state estimation by means of filters or time series forecasting. This book has been written for students specializing in the overlap of engineering and computer science as well as for researchers, and for engineers in industry working with modelling, simulation, control, fault diagnosis, and failure prognosis in various application fields and who might be interested to see how bond graph modelling can support their work.Presents a hybrid model-based, data-driven approach to failure prognosisHighlights synergies and relations between fault diagnosis and failure prognosticDiscusses the importance of fault diagnosis and failure prognostic in various fields

In line with this, the book addresses master’s students in the overlap of engineering and computer science as well as engineers working in various application fields and interested in useful control techniques and less in system theories appealing from a mathematical point of view.

This problem and solution-oriented textbook covers standard control engineering tasks as well as advanced modern control techniques. Throughout, students are provided examples of control engineering problems with step-by-step solutions. Each chapter addresses basic ideas, key control concepts, and definitions and provides a compilation of theoretical results used for the solution of the problems. The book is aimed not only at engineering students and practitioners but also computer science students and software engineers who, for instance, are working on the design of autonomous cars or with digital twins and need some knowledge of basic control concepts and advanced modern control techniques. The book addresses graduate students and readers in the overlap of engineering and computer science. The book aims to further their understanding of theoretical results learned in undergraduate control classes or in textbooks; the book shows them how to apply their knowledge in exercises to small problems and to see how some examples of problems can be solved. Whenever possible, the problems have been solved by means of the open-source software GNU Octave. In some cases, also the free open-source mathematical software Scilab has been used.Provides problems and solutions for standard control engineering tasks and advanced modern control techniques;Provides a collection of examples of control engineering problems with step-by-step solutions;Addresses control concepts and provides a compilation of theoretical results used for the solution of the problems.
