DESCRIPTION:
From the Publisher Title of related interest from Waveland Press: Hall, Notes on Mechanism Analysis (ISBN 9780881332704).
The book also describes methods used to manufacture disk cams, and it discusses mathematical methods for calculating the cam profile, the pressure angle, and the locations of the cam. Analysis of kinematics and dynamics are crucial to the design of mechanisms and machines. In this student-friendly text, Martin presents the fundamental principles of these important disciplines in as simple a manner as possible, favoring basic theory over special constructions. This book is an excellent choice for courses in kinematics of machines, dynamics of machines, and machine design and vibrations.. Among the areas covered are the equivalent four-bar linkage; rotating vector treatment for analyzing multi-cylinder engines; and critical speeds, including torsional vibration of shafts
"Not a good book. Has terrible examples explaining problems" according to unknown. Not a good book. Has terrible examples explaining problems. Has several examples with only graphical diagrams, no solutions to how it can be solved. Some of the homework problems leave you a little confused with how the answer should be presented and there aren't any examples to clarify it. I would advise a different text for learning the subject.. Jay E. said Decent. This book was required for a mechanical engineering class I took and has good problems to work through. I am not impressed with the examples and graphics/figures within the book but it explains derivations decently.. Thomas Bon said Five Stars. Very happy with the purchase.
