Fluid Power Systems is a text/workbook that covers topics specifically relating to the design, application, and maintenance of hydraulic and pneumatic systems. This new edition has been redesigned and includes expanded content on hydraulic pumps, fluid conductors, connectors, and means of transmission. The text/workbook addresses fluid power systems, components, and devices specific to industrial, commercial, and mobile power equipment applications such as pumps, valves, actuators, electrical controls, and troubleshooting techniques. Each component, device, or system is introduced with descriptions, operation, common applications, system examples, and operating characteristics. Schematic symbols are introduced throughout the textbook to assist the learner with schematic diagram comprehension.The included FluidSIM� 4.2 Student Version simulation software provides the learner with an added tool to create, build, and troubleshoot hydraulic circuits in the form of specific activities in the text/workbook. Instructors can also create their own activities.

The excitement and the glitz of mechatronics has shifted the engineering community's attention away from fluid power systems in recent years.
This book covers the background theory of fluid power and indicates the range of concepts needed for a modern approach to condition monitoring and fault diagnosis.
The Second Edition offers many new worked examples and additional exercises and problems in each chapter.
This is an undergraduate text/reference for applications in which large forces with fast response times are achieved using hydraulic control.
Engineers not only need to understand the basics of how fluid power components work, but they must also be able to design these components into systems and analyze or model fluid power systems and circuits.
