TY - BOOK AU - Shigley,Joseph Edward AU - Uicker,John Joseph TI - Theory of Machines and Mechanisms SN - 0070569304 AV - TJ145 .S54 1995 U1 - 621.8 20 PY - 1995/// CY - New York PB - McGraw-Hill KW - Mechanical engineering N1 - Includes index; Kinematics and mechanisms: the world of mechanics; position and displacement; velocity; acceleration. Part 2 Design of mechanisms: cam design; spur gears; helical gears; bevel gears; worm gears; mechanism trains; synthesis of linkages; spatial mechanisms; robotics. Part 3 Dynamics of machines: static force analysis; dynamic force analysis - planar, spatial; vibration analysis; dynamics of reciprocating engines; balancing of machines; cam dynamics N2 - This text covers machine design, mechanisms and vibration, enabling students to learn how they operate, what they do, and their geometry. Important concepts of position difference and apparent position are introduced, teaching students that there are two kinds of motion ER -
