About this title

Synopsis

For courses in Mechanism Design and Kinematics in Departments of Engineering Technology and Application-Oriented Mechanical Engineering Programs.

This up-to-date text responds to the overwhelming need for an introduction to kinematic analysis that uses actual machines and mechanisms. It provides the techniques necessary to study the motion of machines while emphasizing the application of kinematic theories to real-world problems.

From the Back Cover

Machines and Mechanisms applies graphical and analytical kinematic theories to real-world machines. The book is intended to bridge the gap between a theoretical study of kinematics and the application to practical mechanisms. This objective of providing the techniques necessary to study the motion of machines while emphasizing the application of kinematic theories to real-world machines is consistent with the philosophy of engineering and technology programs.

New to the third edition:

A new section dealing with kinematic modeling of complicated joints
Expanded definitions of kinematic properties to more precisely describe each property
Enhanced tables describing cam-follower motion
New tables of commercially available gears, sheaves, belts, and sprockets
Many new problems

Distinctive features of this book include:

Case studies at the end of every chapter to illustrate mechanisms used on industrial equipment and help students see the practical application of the material they are studying
A focus on the application of kinematic theories to practical mechanisms throughout the text, further illustrating the real-world application of the material presented
An introduction to modern tools of the trade through suggestions for implementing the graphical techniques on computer-aided design systems and suggestions for using programmable devices (calculators, spreadsheets, math software, etc.) for analytical solution procedures.
