The book is a learning package for students and professionals who are looking to advance their fluid

power careers. The package includes colored textbook, electronic files for the animated hydraulic

circuits, and a colored workbook (separate price) that contains printed power point slides, chapter

reviews and assignments. The book is the second in a series that the author plans to publish to offer

complete and comprehensive teaching and design tools for the fluid power industry. This book is an

attempt to fill 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 basically to promote their

products.

The book presents constructional and operational qualitative analogies between electrical, hydraulic

and electro-hydraulic systems. The book considers presenting real-life examples for various types of

electro-hydraulic valves. The book also covers the technicalities of in-field tuning of open-loop and

closed-loop electro-hydraulic systems. The book also presents guideline to select a valve for an

application and how to read data sheet of a valve. The book covers the basic functions contained in

the electronic control units that drive EH valves such as gain adjustor, maximum current limiter,

ramp generator, pulse width modulation, dead band eliminator, null adjustment, and current much

more.

The textbook is produced in letter size (8.5 x 11) inches, and weighs 3.5 lb. The textbook contains a

total of ten chapters distributed on 498 pages. The workbook is produced in the same size and

weighs 2 lb. The associated software is online downloadable.
