Mechatronic Innovations in Smart Grids, IoT, and Autonomous Systems (Hardcover)

This book presents a collection of advanced research contributions focusing on the integration of mechatronic systems, smart grid technologies, and intelligent automation. The chapters cover diverse but interrelated areas including hybrid power systems, IoT-driven network simulations, renewable and conventional energy integration, as well as emerging robotics applications. Together, they provide an in-depth perspective on how modern mechatronic approaches are shaping the future of energy, automation, and intelligent system design. The book also highlights interdisciplinary methods where control systems, artificial intelligence, and computational tools intersect to deliver more resilient, efficient, and adaptable solutions.

Dr. Aydin Azizi holds a PhD in Mechanical Engineering–Mechatronics, an MSc in Mechatronics, and a BSc in Mechanical Engineering. Certified as a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, official instructor for the Siemens Mechatronic Certification Program (SMSCP), and Editor-in-Chief of the book series Emerging Trends in Mechatronics published by Springer Nature Group, he currently serves as a Senior Lecturer and the Academic Partnership Liaison Manager at Oxford Brookes University. His current research focuses on investigating and developing novel techniques to model, control, and optimize complex systems, with expertise in Control & Automation, AI, and Simulation Techniques. Dr. Azizi is the recipient of the National Research Award of Oman for his AI-based controllers research, DELL EMC’s “Envision the Future” award for the “Automated Irrigation System,” and ‘Exceptional Talent’ recognition by the British Royal Academy of Engineering.
