Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces the study of mechanisms as a combination of resistant bodies arranged to induce specific motions from external forces. It delves into the two main branches of mechanism study: Pure Mechanism, concerning motion and form, and Constructive Mechanism, covering the calculation of forces and selection of materials for strength and durability. The author provides a systematic and practical approach, dividing the subject into two main topics: kinematics of machinery and kinematics of machines. Kinematics of Machinery provides a detailed study of the motions and forms of machine parts, focusing on concepts such as continuous motion, reciprocating motion, intermittent motion, revolution, rotation, and cycles of motions. Kinematics of Machines explores the transmission of motion, examining how power is transmitted through direct contact or intermediate connectors such as bands, and exploring different types of pairs of elements such as bearings and screws, worm and wheel. The book concludes with an analysis of rolling cylinders and cones connected by force-closure, demonstrating the application of pure kinematics to real-world mechanical systems. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
