Mechanism And Machine Theory Site
: Improving suspension systems, engines, and steering linkages.
: Studying motion (position, velocity, acceleration) without considering the forces that cause it.
: Analyzing the relationship between motion and the forces or torques acting on a system. Mechanism and Machine Theory
: The number of independent inputs required to move the system. Modern Applications
: Designing a mechanism to achieve a specific movement or task. : Improving suspension systems
: An assembly of links and joints; a "mechanism" is a chain where at least one link is fixed to the ground.
: Developing high-precision robotic arms and walking bipeds. Mechanism and Machine Theory
: Evaluating an existing mechanism to determine its performance and limits. Basic Building Blocks Links : The rigid or flexible bodies that make up a machine.
