Fluid Mechanics in Mechatronics

Mechatronics is a result of a union of electronics and mechanics. Success in this field requires an understanding of robotics, pneumatics, hydraulics, and artificial intelligence. That problem is more interesting, when the task of mechatronik we relate to function of a lively organism. In the paper authors focused on increasing meaning of fluid mechanics in mechatronics. Some typical components can not be considered in simplified way in view of mass stream and energy stream. Some consideration on importance of fluid mechanics in mechatronics have been described in the paper. In the paper authors showed directions of development of hydraulic and pneumatic drive.
