Introduction to Mechanism Design with Computer Applications

Overview of Mechanism Design: with Computer Applications provides a contemporary approach to undergraduate Mechanism Design and Kinematics courses/modules for engineering students. The utilization of web-based simulations, continuous modeling, and software such as MATLAB and Excel is employed to connect the design process with the latest software tools for the design and analysis of mechanisms and machines. While a mechanical engineer might brainstorm with a pencil and sketch pad, the final outcome is developed and communicated by CAD and computational visualizations. This contemporary approach to mechanical design processes has not been fully integrated in most books, as it’s in this new text.
