... (modules with embedded control). The purpose of this paper is to detail the particular developments within the IDEAS project, which include the first self re‐configuring system demonstration and a new mechatronic architecture. Design/methodology/approach The paper covers the development of a plug...

... up in a nutshell, “To decide what values should be applied to the inputs right now, in the light of all available measurements and their history”. Anything further is embroidery. My point is that the teaching of mechatronics demands an alternative approach to control theory, rooted in simulation...

.... The Schemebuilder object oriented methodology (Bracewell et al., 1995) can represent design knowledge and principles of interdisciplinary systems. This method has been implemented in a software tool Schemebuilder which is highly suited to mechatronic (Bradley, 1991) system design. Mechatronics, which...

...Jack Hollingum Mechatronics received close attention in October 1998, first at a day conference organized by the IEE looking at the Japanese experience, and then at a lecture on intelligent mechatronics. Japanese experience was looked at from the standpoint of Tom Salusbury, who had been Science...
