About this Unit
In this unit rigid body kinematics is analysed from the freedom-and-constraints point of view and graphical approaches to velocity and acceleration analyses are covered. The unit looks at how one or more particles move in one, two or three dimensions and how forces cause these movements. It also looks at how forces and couples cause the movement of a single rigid body in two and three dimensions. The movement of multi-body mechanisms and gear trains and the geometry of gear teeth and cams are studied.Offerings of alternate units are dependent on there being sufficient student enrolment numbers. If enrolments are low, the College may cancel delivery of the alternate unit.
