DESCRIPTION:
About the Author William J. Palm III a Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Applied Mechanics at the University of Rhode Island, he helped develop an educational program of introduction to engineering based on MATLAB. He is the author of several books, including the System dynamics, published by McGraw-Hill and Modeling, Analysis, and Control of Dynamic Systems and Mechanical Vibration, both published by John Wiley.
Problems are randomized to prevent sharing of answers an may also have a "multi-step solution" which helps move the students' learning along if they experience difficulty.. System Dynamics includes the strongest treatment of computational software and system simulation of any available text, with its early introduction of MATLAB® and Simulink®. Connect allows the professor to assign homework, quizzes, and tests easily and automatically grades and records the scores of the student's work. The text's extensive coverage also includes discussion of the root locus and frequency response plots, among other methods for assessing system behavior in the time and frequency domains, as well as topics such as function discovery, parameter estimation, and system identification techniques, motor performance evaluation, and system dynamics in everyday life. NEW! McGraw-Hill Education's Connect, will also be available as an optional, add on item - starting in June 2017. Connect is the only integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver precisely what they need, when they need it, how they need it, so that class time is more effective

R Snook said Could be so much clearer. Whoever did the editing for this book should be taken behind a building and beaten. I haven't found an equation referenced in the text yet that actually referenced the correct equation (some of them don't even exist), which makes it awesome to understand what the author is actually explaining. Phrases such as "done in the usual meth. Zack said Only good for problems. Pros: -This book has a good selection of unsolved problems. -This book also doubles as a great non drug based sleep remedy.Cons: -Worked examples are too simple compared to unsolved problems. -The sections that are supposed to teach you are only useful to someone who is already well versed in dynamics. -The content in this Only good for problems Pros: -This book has a good selection of unsolved problems. -This book also doubles as a great non drug based sleep remedy.Cons: -Worked examples are too simple compared to unsolved problems. -The sections that are supposed to teach you are only useful to someone who is already well versed in dynamics. -The content in this 3rd editi. rd editi. gabriel silva said I have mixed feelings about this book. I have mixed feelings about this book because I learned so much from it but it has so many flaws. The explanation of block diagrams is short and really bad, Chapter 6 & 7 is very bad as well. They don't explain how they do the problems so unless you mastered circuits, dynamics, thermal fluids,etc It will be hard to relearned the mat
