Computational Fluid Dynamics: an Introduction for Mechanical Engineering Students
by
Sergei S. Sazhin
This book introduces the basic concepts of the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) of single-phase and multiphase flows. While the opening chapter focuses on the key equations that are solved numerically using classical CFD codes, the intention is not just to show these equations, but also to present key ideas of the calculus on which the formulations of these equations, and the analysis of other parts of the book, are based. Various approaches to the discretisation of conservation equations describing single-phase flows and the methods for solving the algebraic equations are demonstrated, including the details of some derivations usually omitted in classical textbooks. Also, the details of the SIMPLE algorithm is described. In contrast to most classical CFD books, this textbook also develops the basic principles of modelling multiphase flows, including approaches to modelling spray formation and droplet dynamics, analyses of flow instabilities, and droplet heating and evaporation. Completing the coverage, approaches to modelling the processes in multicomponent droplets, including puffing and micro-explosion in composite droplets, are discussed and the modelling of thermal radiation transfer using CFD codes is treated.

Dynamics and Control of Autonomous Flight
by
Mark W. Mueller
This book provides a solid foundation to the exciting world of aerial autonomy, with a focus on their rigid-body dynamics, sensing and state estimation, and low-level stabilization. It discusses low-speed, propeller-driven flight typical of Uncrewed Aerial Systems. A tensor approach to 3D modelling allows for a very general modelling approach, which is then also translated into easy-to-use equations (e.g., for coding a state estimator). Stability theory and simple control approaches are developed from first principles, and again applied to, and illustrated with, examples in flight. Concepts central to the practising aerospace engineer, such as rotation formalisms (rotation matrix, quaternions) and the dynamics of rotation are treated in depth. The book is aimed at those interested in aerial autonomy or robotics and requires only fundamental mathematical background in linear algebra and differential equations. Problems are provided throughout the text to evaluate knowledge.

An Introduction to Real-Time Computing for Mechanical Engineers
by
Rico A. R. Picone; Joseph L. Garbini; Cameron N. Devine
A comprehensive introduction to real-time computing for mechanical engineers and engineering students that integrates theory and application. There are many textbooks that cover real-time computing, but none designed specifically for mechanical engineering curricula. Filling this gap, Rico Picone, Joseph Garbini, and Cameron Devine provide mechanical engineers and engineering students with a comprehensive introduction to real-time computing that integrates theory and application. The book presents the key ideas required to realize mechatronic systems that include real-time computers as functional components. Learning is organized around a sequence of nine hands-on laboratory exercises. Topics include scheduling, interrupts, timing, real-time operating systems, computer hardware, C programming, device drivers, algorithms, digital electronics, communication, amplifiers, encoders, finite state machines, discrete dynamic systems, and digital feedback control. Leading readers through the process of designing and implementing real-time systems while applying the architecture and resources of a modern real-time development environment, this text provides an essential foundation that can be implemented and extended throughout an engineering career. The first real-time computing textbook designed for mechanical engineers Offers hands-on instruction in the design and programming of real-time mechatronic systems Introduces fundamental computing and programing topics Includes detailed coverage of user interaction, real-time program organization, timing control, and interface hardware Ideal for advanced undergraduate and first-year graduate students as well as for self-study

Mechanics of Solids and Structures
by
Roger T. Fenner; J. N. Reddy; Arun R. Srinivasa
The third edition of Mechanics of Solids and Structures makes use of computational methods such as the finite element method that has revolutionized the field to solve problems while retaining all the basic principles and foundational information needed for mastering advanced engineering mechanics principles and acquiring problem-solving skills. The authors have updated the text to include the integration of numerical approaches and MATLAB computer programs into the body of the text for carrying out analysis of truss, beam, and frame structures. The third edition also offers an update to chapter one, which includes a more detailed explanation of the idealization of real-world objects, the conversion into two-dimensional approximation, and the student's ability to create line drawings and other schematics to practice drawing and create free-body diagrams. The authors have also added new examples and exercise problems throughout the book that allow students to practice and apply the concepts and formulas to solve problems. Following the legacy of the previous editions, the third edition serves as a course text for the senior/graduate (third, fourth, or fifth year) courses/modules in the mechanics of solid/advanced strength of materials, offered in aerospace, civil, engineering science, and mechanical engineering departments.
