Mathematical and computer-based models provide a foundation for explaining complex behaviour, decision-making, engineering design and for real-time simulators for research and training. Many engineering design techniques depend on suitable models, assessment of the adequacy of a given model for an intended application is therefore critically important. Generic model structures and dependable libraries of sub-models that can be applied repeatedly are increasingly important. Applications are drawn from the fields of mechanical, aeronautical and control engineering, and involve non-linear lumped-parameter models described by ordinary differential equations.Focuses on issues of model quality and the suitability of a given model for a specific applicationMultidisciplinary problems within engineering feature strongly in the applicationsThe development and testing of nonlinear dynamic models is given very strong emphasis", "author": "D J Murray-Smith", "slug": "modelling-and-simulation-of-integrated-systems-in-engineering-297690-9780857096050-d-j-murray-smith", "thumbnail_image": "//redshelf-images.s3-external-1.amazonaws.com/cover_image/9780857096050.jpg", "default_thumbnail_image": "//redshelf-images.s3-external-1.amazonaws.com/thumbnail/default_book_thumbnail.jpg", "product_type": "book", "product_id": "297690", "product_url": "/app/ecom/book/297690/modelling-and-simulation-of-integrated-systems-in-engineering-297690-9780857096050-d-j-murray-smith", "bisac_codes": [ "TEC009070", "253" ], "items_count": null, "identifiers": { "ISBN13": "9780857090782", "EISBN13": "9780857096050", "EISBN10": "0857096052" }, "drm": null, "cover_image": null, "default_cover_image": null, "book_type": null }, "relationships": { "lowest_offering": { "data": { "type": "offerings", "id": "00010026348291" } } } }, { "type": "Product", "id": "00010000297689", "attributes": { "name": "Microbial Decontamination in the Food Industry", "subtitle": "Novel Methods and Applications", "description": "The problem of creating microbiologically-safe food with an acceptable shelf-life and quality for the consumer is a constant challenge for the food industry.
