Theory of Applied Robotics by Reza N Jazar
The second edition of this book would not have been possible without the comments and suggestions from my students, especially those at Columbia University. Many of the new topics introduced here are a direct result of student feedback that helped me refine and clarify the material. My intention when writing this book was to develop material that I would have liked to had available as a student. Hopefully, I have succeeded in developing a reference that covers all aspects of robotics with sufficient detail and explanation. The first edition of this book was published in 2007 and soon after its publication it became a very popular reference in the field of robotics. I wish to thank the many students and instructors who have used the book or referenced it. Your questions, comments and suggestions have helped me create the second edition. Preface This book is designed to serve as a text for engineering students. It introduces the fundamental knowledge used in robotics. This knowledge can be utilized to develop computer programs for analyzing the kinematics, dynamics, and control of robotic systems.From the reviews of the second edition:
“The second edition of this popular reference and textbook on robotics includes new material based on suggestions from students and instructors, asking for refinements and clarifications… The organization of the book is excellent and the ‘fact – reason – application’ presentation methodology will be appreciated by students and instructors as well.” (Franz Selig, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1205, 2011)Reza N. Jazar is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering. Reza received his PhD degree from Sharif University of Technology, Tehran, Iran; MSc and BSc from Tehran Polytechnic, Tehran, Iran. His areas of expertise include Nonlinear Dynamic Systems and Applied Mathematics. He obtained original results in non-smooth dynamic systems, applied nonlinear vibrating problems, time optimal control robotics, and mathematical modeling of vehicle dynamics and stability. He authored several monographs in vehicle dynamics, robotics, dynamics, vibrations, mathematics, and published numerous professional articles, as well as book chapters in research volumes. Most of his textbooks have been adopted by many universities for teaching and research and by many research agencies as standard model for research results.
Dr. Jazar had the pleasure to work in several Canadian, American, Asian, and Middle Eastern universities, as well as several years in Automotive Industries all around the world. Working in different engineering firms and educational systems provide him a vast experience and knowledge to publish his researches on important topics in engineering and science. His unique style of writing helps readers to learn the topics deeply in an easy way.
