Reihe: Mechanisms and Machine Science

This book develops the basic content for an introductory course in Mechanism and Machine Theory. The text is clear and simple, supported by more than 350 figures. More than 60 solved exercises have been included to mark the translation of this book from Spanish into English. Topics treated include:
dynamic analysis of machines; introduction to vibratory behavior; rotor and piston balanced; critical speed for shafts; gears and train gears; synthesis for planar mechanisms; and kinematic and dynamic analysis for robots. The chapters in relation to kinematics and dynamics for planar mechanisms can be studied with the help of WinMecc software, which allows the reader to study in an easy and intuitive way, but exhaustive at the same time. This computer program analyzes planar mechanisms of one-degree of freedom and whatever number of links. The program allows users to build a complex mechanism. They can modify any input data in real time changing values in a numeric way or usingthe computer mouse to manipulate links and vectors while mechanism is moving and showing the results. This powerful tool does not only show the results in a numeric way by means of tables and diagrams but also in a visual way with scalable vectors and curves.

Latin America for years.






Antonio Simón received his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Aeronautical Engineering
from the Polytechnic University of Madrid, Spain. He is currently a Professor
of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Malaga, Spain, and he is the
Head of the Mechanical Engineering Department at Malaga University. His
research interests include modeling and control of vehicle systems, advanced
vehicle systems, genetic algorithms applied to mechanisms and tire models,

Alex Bataller got his Degree
in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Malaga in 1983. Afterwards, he
worked as Assistant Professor at the same university, teaching Kinematics and
Dynamics of Machines. In 1987 he became Associate Professor andsince then he
has been teaching Theory of Mechanisms and Machines. In 1986 he developed an
educational software program for the kinematic and dynamic analysis of
mechanisms called MecC. That was the origin of the WinMecC software, which is
currently used in many universities. At present, his research is focused on
the synthesis of mechanisms with genetic algorithms for medical applications.
