Introduction
One of the major criteria of which a
designer must be aware is the
ability for a particular mechanism to
transmit torque or force.
Using IC to determine mV
Mechanical Advantage
Work = Force * Distance
Power is the rate of doing work.

Example
Exercise
Figure shows a four bar chain in which link AD is the
driver and link BC is the driven. The driver rotates
uniformly at a speed of 120 rpm, and the constant
driving torque is 50 Nm. At a particular phase of the
mechanism, the angular velocity of the driven link is 2
rad/sec.
M.A (ideal)= 6.28

3 and 4
How can we obtain 3 and 4?
Using methods from Position analysis:
Open Configuration:
3 = 35.4, 4 = 84.4 4 = -0.075 rad/s
Cross Configuration:
3 = -73, 4 = -122 4 = -0.775 rad/s
R2 - R 3 - R 4 - R 1 = 0
