APPLICATIONS FROM ENGINEERING WITH MATLAB CONCEPTS

1 APPLICATIONS FROM ENGINEERING WITH MATLAB CONCEPTSE dited by Jan Valdman Can Stock Photo Inc. / aLunaBlueAPPLICATIONS FROM ENGINEERING WITH MATLAB CONCEPTSE dited by Dr. Jan ValdmanDr. Jan Valdman is an associate professor of applied mathemat-ics at the University of South Bohemia ( esk Bud jovice, Czech Republic) and a researcher at the Institute of Information Theo-ry and Automation (Prague, Czech Republic). He obtained MSc degrees from Mathematical Research Institute (Utrecht, the Netherlands) and University of West Bohemia (Pilsen, Czech Republic) in 1998.

2 He graduated from University of Kiel (Germany) for his PhD thesis on modeling of elastoplasticity in 2002. After spending many years at several foreign institutions (Linz, Bergen, Rey-kjavik, and Leipzig), he returned back to Czech Republic. He defended his habili-tation in applied mathematics at Technical University Ostrava in 2011. His areas of interests include computational nonlinear mechanics of solids and a posteriori error estimates. He published several vectorized codes for finite elements com-putations in book presents a collection of MATLAB -based chapters of various ENGINEERING background.

3 Instead of giving exhausting amount of technical details, authors were rather advised to explain relations of their problems to actual MATLAB con-cepts. So, whenever possible, download links to functioning MATLAB codes were added and a potential reader can do own testing. Authors are typically scientists with interests in modeling in MATLAB . Chapters include image and signal pro-cessing, mechanics and dynamics, models and data identification in biology, fuzzy logic, discrete event systems and data acquisition 978-953-51-2459-7 APPLICATIONS FROM ENGINEERING WITH MATLAB CONCEPTSE dited by Jan ValdmanAPPLICATIONS FROMENGINEERING WITHMATLAB CONCEPTSE dited by Jan ValdmanApplications from ENGINEERING with MATLAB by Jan ValdmanContributorsMahmut Sinecen, Tolga Yuksel, Eduardo Corral, Jes s Meneses, Juan Carlos Garc a-Prada, Jan Urban, Raul Campos-Rodriguez, Mildreth Alcaraz-Mejia.

9 Having been an undergraduate student of appliedmathematics and ENGINEERING , I can still remember building a Simulink model and solvingunderlying nonlinear ordinary differential equation numerically more than 20 years ago. Ev ery time since I have used MATLAB in my computations and also in teaching of numericalanalysis and linear algebra, I was also involved in projects where the core part of the codewas written in C/C++ to get some time speedup. At the final stage of every project I endedup at writing all my codes again in MATLAB . Recently, I became fascinated with the vecto rization of MATLAB codes for the numerical solution of partial differential equations by thefinite element work on this book started in 2015, when I was asked by InTech, the open access publish er, to act as an editor of a book on MATLAB .

10 Currently, there are many books on MATLAB ,ranging from introductory courses for beginners up to advanced books on various accelera tions techniques including parallel computing. The aim of this book is to present selectedscientific problems of contributors and demonstrate their solutions in MATLAB . Chaptersinclude image and signal processing, mechanics and dynamics, models and data identifica tion in biology, fuzzy logic, discrete event systems, and data acquisition systems. Instead ofgiving exhausting amount of technical details, authors were advised to explain relations oftheir problems to actual MATLAB CONCEPTS .
