Excerpt from The Kinematics of Machinery: Outlines of a Theory of Machines
The greater part of the Theoretische Kinematik of Prof. Reuleaux, which I have now the pleasure of presenting to English and American readers, was originally published in chapters in the Berliner Verhandlungen, under the title of Kinematische Mit theilnngen. These papers, revised and enlarged, and with the addition of a chapter on Kinematic Synthesis, were published collectively in 1874 - 5 in the work of which the present is a translation. They have attracted considerable attention in Germany, and the principles laid down in them have already made their way into Polytechnic School instruction, not only in that country but also in Russia and Italy.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a foundational exploration of the science of kinematics - the branch of mechanics that studies the motion of bodies without regard to what is causing the motion or the force required to achieve it. Beginning with a general introduction to the nature of machines and the discipline of kinematics, the text proceeds to investigate kinematic chains and mechanisms. It covers constrained and unconstrained mechanisms, the construction of cams and gears, and the synthesis and analysis of machine components. The author develops a new theory and a new notation for describing the motion of mechanisms and the forces that act on them, demonstrating the analysis of complete machines. Incisive and comprehensive, this book builds a strong foundation for further study of the kinematics of machinery while also opening up new avenues of inquiry for scholars in the field.
