This monograph provides an overview of the recent developments in modern control systems including new theoretical findings and successful examples of practical implementation of the control theory in different areas of industrial and special applications.
A wearable robot is a mechatronic system that is designed around the shape and function of the human body, with segments and joints corresponding to those of the person it is externally coupled with.
Learn PLC programming from the software perspective to understand advanced concepts such as OOP and HMI development and design reusable, portable, and robust codePurchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBookKey FeaturesTake a deep dive into object-oriented PLC programming to gain hands-on knowledgeExplore software engineering concepts such as SDLC, debugging, and SOLID programmingGet a thorough grasp on HMI development to build various HMI projectsBook DescriptionObject-oriented programming (OOP) is a new feature of PLC programming that has taken the automation world by storm.
Build your own intelligent agent system Intelligent agent technology is a tool of modern computer science that can be used to engineer complex computer programmes that behave rationally in dynamic and changing environments.
Today s trend towards the renewal of cities, sociable places, higher standards of architecture and sustainable city centre living is the business of urban design.
Haikonen envisions autonomous robots that perceive and understand the world directly, acting in it in a natural human-like way without the need of programs and numerical representation of information.
Bipedal Robots: Modeling, Design and Walking Synthesis This book presents various techniques to carry out the gait modeling, the gait patterns synthesis, and the control of biped robots.
One of the most important problems in the field of engineering and technology is the development of so-called intelligent systems, which can perform various intellectual tasks.
For thousands of years humans have experimented with various methods of waste disposal-from burning and burying to simply packing up and moving in search of an unscathed environment.

Industrial assets (such as railway lines, roads, pipelines) are usually huge, span long distances, and can be divided into clusters or segments that provide different levels of functionality subject to different loads, degradations and environmental conditions, and their efficient management is necessary.
