Abstract: While synthesizing a planar drag-link between positions of unity velocity can be reduced to a problem of synthesizing a planar crank-rocker, this is not the case with a spherical drag-link. ...

Abstract: The present problem is a variation of synthesizing spherical four-bar function generators to coordinate three pairs of finitely separated crank-angle displacements. It is to be stressed here that, ...

Abstract: Complex mechanism containing four-bar loops may be treated as simpler compound mechanisms in acceleration analysis by introducing the relative center of curvature of the relative path of a certain ...
