Kinematics and Dynamics of Mechanisms and Manipulators Analyzes kinematic and dynamic characteristics of planar and spatial mechanisms, including machines and robotic manipulators. Use of vector, graphical, and 4 by 4 matrix methods for kinematic analysis. An introduction to graphical and computer methods for kinematic synthesis of mechanisms. Methods for dynamic analysis of mechanisms, and the use of digital simulation techniques. Systems include rigid and flexible elements and active control systems. Applications from industrial machine systems and robotic manipulators.
