Abstract: Some methods have been investigated both theoretically and experimentally to reduce the fluctuating torques in the driving shafts caused by the inertia forces in the crank-and-rocker mechanisms; ...

Abstract: Criteria are given for evaluating the performance and determining the dimensions of plane crank-and-rocker mechanisms suitable for operation at high speeds. In contrast to the classical procedure ...

Abstract: In Part I proportions were derived for high-speed plane crank-and-rocker mechanisms. In this part, the corresponding developments are given for spherical crank-and-rocker mechanisms. The ratios of ...
