Inhaltsangabe

Based on the foundation provided by the "Systems & Control Encyclopedia", this book presents material concerning the current state of measurement and instrumentation. It does not simply provide a catalogue of transducer devices and related systems but deals with the subject of measurement and instrumentation on a fundamental basis, leading from the basic concepts and principles of measurement science through to transducer devices and their applications, thereby bringing together the subject as a whole - the systems approach. The content of the book is arranged alphabetically. It deals with all important subjects, these being: general theoretical principles of measurement and instrumentation; instruments and instrument systems in relation to their life cycle; instrument systems: elements and general technology; measurement and information systems classified by measurand; and applications. A significant feature of the text is the progression from theoretical principles, through transducers to applications. The thematic arrangement around which the book has been planned is also shown in the introduction.
