This book presents a fair and balanced description of dynamics problems and formulations. From the classical methods to the newer techniques used in today's complex and multibody environments, this text shows how those approaches complement each other. The text begins by introdu…

Control and Dynamic Systems V30: Advances in Algorithms and Computational Techniques in Dynamic System Control Part 3 of 3.
First treatment of Equations of Motion in General Relativity in book form in over 40 years Graduated presentation of highly technical material Links theory and observation Includes novel presentations of the relativistic motion of small black holes and choreographic configuratio…
This volume deals with the elements required for establishing the equations of motion when dealing with solid bodies. Chapter 1 focuses on the systems of reference used to locate solid bodies relative to the observer, and demonstrates how to describe their position, orientation,…
This book takes a fresh, systematic approach to determining the equation of motion for the classical model of the electron introduced by Lorentz 130 years ago. The original derivations of Lorentz, Abraham, Poincare, and Schott are modified and generalized for the charged insulat…
Single-cable mining elevators -- Dual-cable elevators -- Elevators with disturbances -- Elevators with flexible guides -- Deep-sea construction -- Deep-sea construction with event-triggered delay compensation -- Off-shore rotary oil drilling -- Basic control of sandwich hyperbol…
"Control applications in undersea construction, cable elevators, and offshore drilling present major methodological challenges because they involve PDE systems (cables and drillstrings) of time-varying length, coupled with ODE systems (the attached loads or tools) that usually h…
