P o n c e , M o lin a , C e p e d a , L u g o & M a c C le e ry Agricultural production is one of the main keys to the development of healthy G societies. It is anticipated that agricultural systems will increasingly have to contend r e with temperature, humidity and water stress in the near future. This makes the need e to increase the efficiency of land and water use ever more urgent. The control and n h design of greenhouses allows to increase dramatically the quality of crops and extend o the cultivation period year-round. A properly designed autonomous greenhouse based u on hydroponics can greatly reduce the amounts of nutrients and energy expended in s e agricultural production. D This book deals with different types of greenhouses, materials, structures, advanced e control techniques and tendencies that are needed for designing and controlling an s advanced greenhouse. The control system is presented as an integral system which i g covers the explanation of basic and advanced concepts for a real time controller. Also, n structural analysis is introduced, whereby mechanical design is regarded as a key factor. a The book incorporates simulations and experimental results, and utilizes LabVIEW and n Greenhouse Design ADAMS software. Finally, it provides a perspective on the present state and future of d greenhouses globally. C o Written in a highly accessible manner, this book will prove useful to horticulturalists, n and Control agricultural engineers, greenhouse engineers and designers. Its easy-to-absorb t r contents are also suitable for (under)graduate students and researchers in agricultural o and electronic engineering, horticulture, crop cultivation and soft computing. l Pedro Ponce Arturo Molina Paul Cepeda Esther Lugo Brian MacCleery an informa business Greenhouse Design and Control TThhiiss ppaaggee iinntteennttiioonnaallllyy lleefftt bbllaannkk Greenhouse Design and Control Pedro Ponce,Arturo Molina, Paul Cepeda & Esther Lugo Tecnologico de Monterrey,Campus Ciudad de Mexico,Mexico City,Mexico Brian MacCleery National Instruments,Austin,TX,USA CRCPress/BalkemaisanimprintoftheTaylor&FrancisGroup,aninformabusiness ©2015Taylor&FrancisGroup,London,UK TypesetbyMPSLimited,Chennai,India PrintedandBoundbyCPIGroup(UK)Ltd,Croydon,CR04YY Allrightsreserved.Nopartofthispublicationortheinformationcontained hereinmaybereproduced,storedinaretrievalsystem,ortransmittedinany formorbyanymeans,electronic,mechanical,byphotocopying,recordingor otherwise,withoutwrittenpriorpermissionfromthepublisher.
