Being an automotive enthusiast and hobbyist, there is a saying around the race track that speed isn't everything, it's just most everything. Similar sentiments can be said about MAT‐ LAB. MATLAB isn't everything to a practicing engineer, it's just most everything. MATLAB is an indispensable asset for scientists, researchers, and engineers. The richness of the MAT‐ LAB computational environment combined with an integrated development environment (IDE) and straightforward interface, toolkits, and simulation and modeling capabilities, cre‐ ates a research and development tool that has no equal. The book is written for a wide range of users including students, practicing engineers, researchers, and scientists. The diversity of the applications throughout the book shows the wide-ranging capability of MATLAB to per‐ form technical computational efforts in support of research, development and engineering. The common, central theme amongst all the book chapters contained in this book is MAT‐ LAB. As you will notice, MATLAB is used by vast array of researchers, engineers, and stu‐ dents from many different types of organizations ranging from academia, government, and

From quick code prototyping to full blown deployable applications, MATLAB stands as a de facto development language and environment serving the technical needs of a wide range of users. This is clearly demonstrated throughout the book and in some instances the

As a collection of diverse applications, each book chapter presents a novel application and use of MATLAB for a specific result. I am thankful to each author for their diligence and high-level of technical effort presented in each book chapter. It has been my pleasure to

Although open access publishing is not fully accepted by the scientific community as a whole, I believe great benefit is provided by providing a great opportunity for researchers and engineers to share their technical efforts within the technical community without some

Finally, I want to take this opportunity to thank InTech for their patience in working with me on this project and on many of occasions, patiently leading me though the various steps
