Johnston D.N., Plummer A.R. (eds.) Fluid Power and Motion Control

Hadleys Ltd, 2008. — 536 p.The book contains texts of speeches from the Symposium on hydropower and traffic control which took place on September 10-12, 2008.
It became the 21st in a series of symposia held annually at the University of Bath, and was the first to be co-organized by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). Its sponsor was the Network of Liquid Energy Centers in Europe (FPCE). It was a truly international event, in which authors from eleven countries took part.
Thirty-six fully abstracted papers were presented with particular emphasis on advances in hydraulic and pneumatic systems and components. The event included a visit to the Roman baths.
A change in the future is that FPMC symposia are planned to alternate annually between the Bath and the United States.
