Linkage Design Monographs. Proceedings of a Workshop Held at Oklahoma State Univ., Stillwater on November 3-6, 1974

摘要

Newly acquired knowledge in kinematic synthesis, analysis, and dynamics of mechanisms is collated and presented from a group of forty kinematicians gathered together during a workshop held on November 3-6, 1974. The purpose of the meeting was to prepare a linkage design monograph. The technical content of the monograph is divided into four parts: (1) Basic Philosophy in Design; (2) Kinematic Analysis Using Graphical and Analytical Approaches; (3) Dynamic Analysis and Balancing; and (4) Kinematic Synthesis Using Graphical and Analytical Approaches. Included in the material are explanations of vector analysis of planar mechanisms, dynamic analysis of plane mechanisms, force and torque analyses, time responses, gross motion synthesis, design for four-link function generators, linkage design, and linkage optimization. Eighty-two papers are presented in all.
