About the authors: Kenneth Waldron, John B. Gary Kinzel, Associate Chairman at The Ohio State University, has been teaching for more than 25 years. from Stanford University and is the co-author of a book entitled Machines that Walk (MIT Press). . Nordholt Professor and Department Chairman at the Ohio State University, has been practicing in the
David Burns said few positives things to say. The graphical approaches given in this book are a great way to learn the material and this is something that is sorely missing in other texts in this subject. However, this does not compensate for the fact that this book was poorly edited and contains numerous e. Horrible! This textbook is horrible! There are no solutions to any of the problems at the end of the chapter. The solutions to the example problems are miserable as well. It gives you a diagram for a system of bars and doesn't explain why they count n links or j joints or. Not worth the paper it is printed on I am a ME student currently taking a kinematics and mechatronics class that uses this book. Reading this book has been an absolute chore and learning anything from it has been very difficult. Concepts are either very poorly explained or not explained at all. Tha
* Several real-world problems are included to show how to apply the basic principles in a realistic setting.. * Comprehensive and authoritative coverage. * The book introduces spatial mechanisms using both vectors and matrices, which introduces the topic from two vantage points
The book uses analytical techniques, without complex mathematics, in the design of mechanical devices. Included with the book is a set of programs, written in MATLAB, which can be run to illustrate kinematics principles. The source code is also provided so readers can modify and customize the programs. From the Publisher A perfect refresher on the kinematics and dynamics of machinery.
