Distributed Transfer Function Method

The distributed transfer function method (DTFM) is an analytical method formodeling, analysis, and control of a class of distributed parameter systems that aregoverned by partial differential equations and that can be defi ned over multipleinterconnected subregions. In this comprehensive reference, the authors show how theDTFM delivers highly accurate analytical solutions in both the frequency domain andthe time domain while offering a versatile modeling technique for various problemsin mechanical, civil, aerospace, electrical, chemical, biomechanical, and vehicleengineering.
