Download or read book Node List Tolerance Analysis written by Robert R. Boyd and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developed at UC Berkeley more than two decades ago, SPICE software is the tool of choice for performing nominal analysis for electronic circuits. However, attempts to use SPICE for worst-case analysis (WCA) reveal several shortcomings, including: a 400-sample limit for Monte Carlo Analysis (MCA); lack of Rot-Sum-Square (RSS) analysis, asymmetric component tolerances, Fast MCA, or AC sensitivity capability; no single-run method of tolerancing inputs; and no predefined beta (skewed) or bimodal (gapped) distributions for MCA. While several commercial versions of SPICE may have corrected some of these limitations, they still remain rather expensive. Based on extensive experience in WCA, Node List Tolerance Analysis: Enhancing SPICE Capabilities with Mathcad presents software methods that overcome the many limitations of SPICE WCA using less expensive tools. The author demonstrates correct and incorrect methods of extreme value analysis, demonstrates the necessity of tolerancing multiple inputs, and provides output histograms for unusual inputs. He also shows how to detect non-monotonic components, which cause severe errors in all WCA methods except MCA. The book also includes demonstrations of tolerance analysis of three-phase AC circuits. Node List Tolerance Analysis: Enhancing SPICE Capabilities with Mathcad requires no circuit analysis mathematics, supplying original methods of nominal circuit analysis using node lists. It is ideal for performing effective analyses while adhering to a budget.

Download or read book Acoustics Sound Fields and Transducers written by Tim Mellow and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2012-12-31 with total page 721 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acoustics: Sound Fields and Transducers is a thoroughly updated version of Leo Beranek's classic 1954 book that retains and expands on the original's detailed acoustical fundamentals while adding practical formulas and simulation methods. Serving both as a text for students in engineering departments and as a reference for practicing engineers, this book focuses on electroacoustics, analyzing the behavior of transducers with the aid of electro-mechano-acoustical circuits. Assuming knowledge of electrical circuit theory, it starts by guiding readers through the basics of sound fields, the laws governing sound generation, radiation, and propagation, and general terminology. It then moves on to examine: - Microphones (electrostatic and electromagnetic), electrodynamic loudspeakers, earphones, and horns - Loudspeaker enclosures, baffles, and waveguides - Miniature applications (e.g., MEMS in I-Pods and cellphones) - Sound in enclosures of all sizes, such as school rooms, offices, auditoriums, and living rooms Numerical examples and summary charts are given throughout the text to make the material easily applicable to practical design. It is a valuable resource for experimenters, acoustical consultants, and to those who anticipate being engineering designers of audio equipment. - An update for the digital age of Leo Beranek's classic 1954 book Acoustics - Provides detailed acoustic fundamentals, enabling better understanding of complex design parameters, measurement methods, and data - Extensive appendices cover frequency-response shapes for loudspeakers, mathematical formulas, and conversion factors
Download or read book Artificial Intelligence in Design written by D.T. Pham and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computers have been employed for some time in engineering design mainly as numerical or graphical tools to assist analysis and draughting. The advent of the technology of artificial intelligence and expert systems has enabled computers to be applied to less deterministic design tasks which require symbolic manipulation and reasoning, instead of only routine number processing. This book presents recent examples of such applications, focusing on mechanical and manufacturing design. The term 'design' is interpreted here in its wider sense to include creative activities such as planning. The book covers a wide spectrum of design operations ranging from component and product design through to process, tooling and systems design. Its aim is to expose researchers, engineers and engineering designers to several developments in the emerging field of intelligent CAD and to alert them of the possibilites and opportunities in this exciting field.
