Description: "Fundamentals of Kinematics and Dynamics of Machines and Mechanisms brings the subject alive and current. The author's careful integration of Mathematica software gives you a chance to perform symbolic analysis, to plot the results, and, most importantly, to animate the motion. You get to "play" with the mechanism parameters and immediately see their effects. A CD-ROM packaged with the book contains a sample of Mathematica-based programs to be used as guides for suggested design projects."--BOOK JACKET.
