Mechatronics key elements(part 1)

1 . Information system: This includes all the aspect of information transmission from signal processing to control system to analysis techniques
An information system is combination of four disciplines:

1. Communication system
2. signal processing
3. control system
4. numerical system   

In mechatronics applications we are most concern with the modeling,simulation,automatic control and numerical method for optimization modeling

• Modeling:  

 Modeling is the process of representing the behavior of the real system by a collection of mathematical equation and logic

The term real system is nothing but a physical system that is a system whose behavior is based on matter and energy

Models can be broadly categorized as

1. Static model
2. dynamic model 

Static model:
 In a static model there is no energy transfer . Systems that are static , produce no motion heat transfer fluid flow traveling waves or  anything that changes.

Dynamic model:
A dynamic model has energy transfer that results in power flow.
power or rate of range of energy causes motion heat transfer and other phenomenon  that changes in time.
