First sentence: The mechanical systems discussed in this book (e.g., Figure 1.1) are collections of rigid-bodies connected by translational and torsional spring, damper and friction elements, and by joints, links, bearings and gear boxes, in which some or all of the bodies can move relative to each ot her.
