The author begins with an overview of optical engineering, including optical fundamentals as well as the fabrication and alignment of optical components such as lenses and mirrors. The concepts of optomechanical engineering are then applied to the design of optical systems, including the structural design of mechanical and optical components, structural dynamics, thermal design, and kinematic design.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eOptomechanical Systems Engineering\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eReviews the fundamental concepts of optical engineering as they apply to optomechanical design\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIllustrates the fabrication and alignment requirements typically found in an optical system\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExamines the elements of structural design from a mechanical, optical, and vibrational viewpoint\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDevelops the thermal management principles of temperature and distortion control\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDescribes the optomechanical requirements for kinematic and semi-kinematic mounts\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUses examples and case studies to illustrate the concepts and equations presented in the book\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides supplemental materials on a companion website\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eFocusing on fundamental concepts and first-order estimates of optomechanical system performance, \u003ci\u003eOptomechanical Systems Engineering\u003c\/i\u003e is accessible to engineers, scientists, and managers who want to quickly master the principles of optomechanical engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Keith J.
