Mechanics of Mechanisms and Robots (870H1)

15 credits, Level 7 (Masters)

Autumn teaching

On this module you’ll cover relative motion in an assembly will be studied from the perspective of relative trajectory, velocity and acceleration in systems typical to robotic systems. The study of the fundamental types of motion of free solids will form the basis for the analysis of motion of mechanisms. The analysis of motion of solid bodies under the action of forces including:

  • Newton’s laws
  • the motion of particles
  • solid bodies
  • assemblies.
