Chapter 5 Planar Kinematic Modeling and Analysis Modeling and analysis techniques 1. Draw a clear diagram of the system to be modeled 2. Select and number bodies and kinematic joints between pairs of bodies 3. Count the number of the constraint equations nh 4. Calculate DOF=3nb-nh 5. If DOF <=0,eliminate the redundant constraints 6. Define DOF drivers to specify the motion of the system 7. Make drawings of each body in the system,defining the body-fixed x'-y'frames and data required for each of the kinematic joints and drivers selected 8. Use a reasonable sketch or diagram of the system to estimate the position and orientation variables to initiate the assembly process of analysisChapter 5 Planar Kinematic Modeling and Analysis 1.
