Geometric Design of Linkages (Interdisciplinary Applied Mathematics)

This book is an introduction to the mathematical theory of design for articulated mechanical systems known as linkages. Download Geometric Design of Linkages (Interdisciplinary Applied Mathematics) from rapidshare, mediafire, 4shared. The focus is on sizing mechanical constraints that guide the movement of a work piece, or end-effector, of the system. The function of the device is prescribed as a set of positions to be reachable by the end-effector; and the mechanical constraints are formed by joints that limit relative movement. The goal is to find all the devices that can achieve a specific task. Formulated in this way the design problem is purely geometric in character. Robot manipulators, walking machines, and mechanical hands are examples of articulated mechanical systems that rely on simple mechanical constraints to provide a complex workspace for Search and find a lot of engineering books in many category availabe for free download.
