Course description:

I this course, fundamental methods for model-based design of mechatronic systems are presented in a ystematic, comprehensive form. The method framework presented here comprises domain-neutral methods for modeling and erformance analysis: multi-domain modeling (energy/port/signal-based) and simulation (ODE/DAE/hybrid systems). The model framework s composed of analytical dynamic models for important physical and technical domains of realization of mechatronic functions, such as multibody dynamics, digital information processing and electromechanical transducers. Building on the modeling concept of a technology-independent generic mechatronic transducer, concrete formulations for certain are presented, as well as design examples to illustrate these methods and concepts.

Contents:

Energy based models, Energy based modeling (Euler-Lagrange); Multi-port based models;  Multi-port modeling - Kirchhoff networks; Mechatronic transducer modeling; Electrostatic transducer; Generic mechatronic transducer; Piezoelectric and electromagnetically-acting transducers.
