Description:
Designed to improve the engineer's intuitive approach to kinematics, this timely book is a practical guide to the principles of the geometry of motion -- and to the connections between those principles and the behavior of actual machines. Clearly and concisely, it covers such commonly used devices as crank-sliders, quick-return mechanisms, linkages, cams, gears, and gear trains. Emphasizing graphical methods that can be used with CAD systems, this unique reference includes procedures for designing mechanical systems to perform prescribed motions, as well as techniques for analyzing the displacements, velocities, accelerations, and force and torque relationships involved in the action of such systems.
