| Learning Outcomes |
At the end of this course, the students;
- construct the equation of motion of single degree of freedom mechanisms using kinematic influence coefficients and apply numerical methods to solve for equation of motion
- perform force analysis in mechanisms including the effects of friction at prismatic and revolute joints
- perform force analysis in simple and planetary gear trains and construct power flow diagrams
- perform balancing of rotating machinery, design counterweights to obtain completely-balanced in-line four-bar mechanisms and reduce shaking forces and moments of in-line multi-cylinder engines
