MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS

Doebelin's 'MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS: APPLICATION & DESIGN' provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of measurement, instrumentation and experimentation for engineering students. The book is also an invaluable resource for engineering professionals. 'MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS' retains its original organization, with coverage of general concepts (Part I), measuring devices (Part II), and the manipulation, transmission and recording of data (Part III). The 5/e is updated throughout; it features expanded coverage of sensors, and the use of computer tools in measurement & data acquisition. Measurement techniques related to micro- and nano-technologies are also discussed, reflecting the growing importance of these technologies, The newest computermethods are covered, and Doebelin has added a significant commercial software connection for users of the book. Specific coverage of MATLAB, SIMULINK, and the lab simulation package DASYLab are provided with the book. In addition, the DASYLab v.7 Student Edition is offered free to purchasers of the text through its website, located at www.McGrawHillEngineeringCS.com; this provides an easy-to-use tool for virtual instrumentation and data acquisition.
