Tutorial 1

This document contains tutorial problems from an engineering dynamics of machinery course. It includes problems involving: 1) Calculating the mobility of linkages and mechanisms from figures. 2) Identifying items in figures as mechanisms, structures, or preloaded structures. 3) Determining the Grashof condition and describing motions for fourbar mechanisms. 4) Finding the mobility of mechanisms from additional figures. 5) Defining examples as cases of path, motion, or function generation. 6) Calculating maximum and minimum transmission angles for mechanisms.
