Hydraulic System Volume 1: Introduction to Hydraulics for Industry Professionals Author: Dr. Medhat Khalil, Ph.D. This book is intended for industry professionals who would like to achieve a deeper understanding of the principles of hydraulic control, and who would like to improve their practical skills in building a hydraulic-driven machine.
Unlike similar books, the contents of this book are presented in a unique way. It fills the gap between the very academic style of fluid power books and the very commercial style of books that are produced by fluid power manufacturers. The book contains two software packages to download. The first package is the Hydraulic Components Sizing Calculator.
The second package is the Animated Circuits Files, which is produced by Automation Studio Software. Both packages are extremely helpful in understanding the subject and interactive designing of a hydraulic system.
