Electrical Systems and Mechatronics (en Inglés) - Michael Hilgers

The aim of this work, consisting of 9 individual, self-contained booklets, is to describe commercial vehicle technology in a way that is clear, concise and illustrative. Compact and easy to understand, it provides an overview of the technology that goes into modern commercial vehicles. Starting from the customer's fundamental requirements, the characteristics and systems that define the design of the vehicles are presented knowledgeably in a series of articles, each of which can be read and studied on their own.

This volume, Electrical Systems and Mechatronics, provides a comprehensive introduction to the mechatronic systems used in modern commercial vehicles. It explains the vehicle's overall mechatronic architecture and presents key functions and systems, ranging from fundamental features such as lighting and switching systems to advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). The book also covers compressed air systems and commercial vehicle braking technology, giving readers a well-rounded understanding of these essential vehicle systems. It serves as a valuable resource for both technical training and practical application in the commercial vehicle industry.
