Dr. Ahmed Ramadan: / Kinematics and Dynamics of Machines

The document provides an outline for a lecture on kinematics and dynamics of machines. It defines a mechanism as the mechanical portion of a machine that transfers motion and forces from a power source to output. Mechanisms are used to change direction, type, speed, or amount of torque. It distinguishes mechanisms, which allow movement between parts and transform energy, from structures, where parts do not move relative to each other. The main types of motion are listed as linear, oscillating, reciprocating, and rotary. Links can be binary, ternary, or quaternary and parts are connected by hinged, sliding, or rolling joints. Classification of joints includes binary, ternary, and quaternary. An

What is a Mechanism? A mechanism is mechanical portion of a machine that has the function of
transferring motion and forces from a power source to an output.

Generally used to:

Change the Change the


direction of type of
movement movement

Change the Change the


speed of amount of
movement torque
What is the difference between a
mechanism and a structure?
1. The parts of a mechanism move relative to one another,
Frame = Structure whereas the members of a structure do not move relative to
one another.

2. A mechanism transforms the available energy into some


useful work, whereas in a structure no energy is transformed
into useful work.

3. The links of a mechanism may transmit both power and


Chain and Sprocket = Mechanism
motion, while the members of a structure transmit forces only.
There are four main
types of motion Linear motion Oscillating Motion

Reciprocating Motion Rotary Motion

The parts of mechanism are
connected together using
different methods:
Sliding joints

Rolling joints
Classification of joints

1. Binary joint

2. Ternary joint

3. Quaternary joint
