The book is about theories and methods of motion analysis of four bar linkages with emphasis on graphical approach. Part I is about concepts, principles and theories of motion. Chapter 1 starts with the definitions of terminologies on kinematics and discussions on drawing scales and simple vector mathematics. Chapter 2 provides the general presentation of motion of machines and machine components and mathematical methods of solving equations of motion. Chapter 3 on velocity discusses three methods of velocity analysis, the method of resolution and composition of vector, the method of instant centers, and the method of relative velocity. Chapter 4 covers acceleration analysis including acceleration of bodies with rolling contact and Coriolis acceleration component. The whole of Part II which comprises 75% of the book contains sample problems on kinematics of machines and machine components and their solutions. The book is entirely presented in Filipino language.
Although the book is in Filipino, English versions of the solutions may also be available.
