System Dynamics: Modeling, Simulation, and Response covers linearity-based modeling techniques before delving into nonlinear systems. It compares the Bond Graph technique against traditional techniques (Newton's law, Kirchhoff's law, the law of the conservation of energy, and the heat transfer law). Presenting transient response analyses of first- and second-order systems subjected to various... Read more
