joint and mechanism and to study the relative motion of parts in a machine without taking into
consideration the forces involved.
2. The objective of this unit is to make student understand various mechanisms for straight line
motion and their applications including steering mechanism..
3. The objective of this unit is to make student understand the velocity and acceleration concepts
and the methodology using graphical Mechanical Engineering 82 methods and principles and
application of four bar chain. To understand the application of slider crank mechanism etc. and
study of plane motion of the body.
