  4. Kinematic pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematic_pair

    In classical mechanics, a kinematic pair is a connection between two physical objects that imposes constraints on their relative movement ().German engineer Franz Reuleaux introduced the kinematic pair as a new approach to the study of machines [1] that provided an advance over the notion of elements consisting of simple machines.

  5. Screw theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_theory

    A common example of a screw is the wrench associated with a force acting on a rigid body. Let P be the point of application of the force F and let P be the vector locating this point in a fixed frame. The wrench W = (F, P × F) is a screw.

  6. Prismatic joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prismatic_joint

    A prismatic joint is a one-degree-of-freedom kinematic pair [1] which constrains the motion of two bodies to sliding along a common axis, without rotation; for this reason it is often called a slider (as in the slider-crank linkage) or a sliding pair. They are often utilized in hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. [2]

  7. Kinematic diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematic_diagram

    Elements of kinematics diagrams include the frame, which is the frame of reference for all the moving components, as well as links (kinematic pairs), and joints. Primary Joints include pins, sliders and other elements that allow pure rotation or pure linear motion. Higher order joints also exist that allow a combination of rotation or linear ...

  8. Transport theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_theorem

    The transport theorem (or transport equation, rate of change transport theorem or basic kinematic equation or Bour's formula, named after: Edmond Bour) is a vector equation that relates the time derivative of a Euclidean vector as evaluated in a non-rotating coordinate system to its time derivative in a rotating reference frame.

  9. Kinematic chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematic_chain

    An example is the simple open chain formed by links connected in series, like the usual chain, which is the kinematic model for a typical robot manipulator. [ 2 ] Mathematical models of the connections, or joints, between two links are termed kinematic pairs .
