equivalent mechanisms
2. To study complex mechanisms to determine velocity and acceleration of output links.
3. To learn to locate inflection points and to draw the inflection circle

concepts-Basic kinematic structures of serial and parallel robot manipulators-Compliant mechanisms -
Equivalent mechanisms.
UNIT-II KINEMATIC ANALYSIS 9
Position Analysis – Vector loop equations for four bar, slider crank, inverted slider crank, geared five bar
and six bar linkages. Analytical methods for velocity and acceleration Analysis– four bar linkage jerk
analysis. Plane complex mechanisms-auxiliary point method. Spatial RSSR mechanism-Denavit-
Hartenberg Parameters – Forward and inverse kinematics of robot manipulators.
UNIT-III PATH CURVATURE THEORY, COUPLER CURVE 9
Fixed and moving centrodes, inflection points and inflection circle. Euler Savary equation, graphical
constructions – cubic of stationary curvature. Four bar coupler curve-cusp -crunode -coupler driven
six-bar mechanisms-straight line mechanisms

UNIT-IV SYNTHESIS OF FOUR BAR MECHANISMS 9


Type synthesis – Number synthesis – Associated Linkage Concept. Dimensional synthesis – function
generation, path generation, motion generation. Graphical methods-Pole technique inversion technique-
point position reduction-two, three and four position synthesis of four- bar mechanisms. Analytical
methods- Freudenstein’s Equation-Bloch’s Synthesis.
SYNTHESIS OF COUPLER CURVE BASED MECHANISMS
