In this book, we aim to give a thorough introduction to machine dynamics. It covers the theoretical basis of dynamics, modelling, mechanical design, practical applications, kinematics and kinetics, principles of mechanics, equations of motion for multibody systems, applications to mechanisms, vehicle dynamics, and static and dynamic balancing. It covers a complete range of mechanisms and concepts, from the determination of degrees of freedom to the design of complex cams. This progression is explained at a reasonable pace so that by the end the reader is able to design and analyze...
