This book covers the kinematics and dynamics of machinery topics. It emphasizes the synthesis and design aspects and the use of computer-aided engineering. A sincere attempt has been made to convey the art of the design process to students in order to prepare them to cope with real engineering problems in practice. This book provides up-to-date methods and techniques for analysis and synthesis that take full advantage of the graphics microcomputer by emphasizing design as well as analysis. In addition, it details a more complete, modern, and thorough treatment of cam design than existing texts in print on the subject. The author’s website at www.designofmachinery.com has updates, the author’s computer programs and the author’s PowerPoint lectures exclusively for professors who adopt the book. Features Student-friendly computer programs written for the design and analysis of mechanisms and machines. Downloadable computer programs from website Unstructured, realistic design problems and solutions
