About the Book

For many years, the coupler-curve atlas by Hrones and Nelson has been a valuable aid for designing four-bar linkages. Today, computers can quickly and accurately analyze displacement, velocity, and acceleration of the coupler point which traces the curve. However, even in the age of computers, an atlas is unsurpassed as a way to see relationships among these curves and choose the best for a particular design by thumbing through paper copies rather than looking at them individually or even in small groups on a computer screen.

This atlas of four-bar linkage coupler-curves facilitates quick visual comparisons. The atlas aids conceptual design by allowing easy perusal of a large number of curves produced by the following linkage categories: Crank Rocker, Double Crank, Crank Slider and Inverted Crank Slider. When an acceptable design is found, the curve can be analyzed and the linkage parameters varied to improve performance by using the appropriate computer software.


About the Author: Philip Todd - Philip has a wealth of experience in a wide variety of mathematics including statistics, mathematical biology, constraint-based geometry systems and symbolic algebra algorithm development. He is the founder and president of Saltire Software, a company which specializes in software with high mathematical content incorporating their core technologies in constraint-based and symbolic geometry.
Before founding Saltire, Phil was a Principal Software Engineer in the Computer Graphics department of the Tektronix Computer Research Labs in Beaverton, Oregon.
Phil has degrees in mathematics from Cambridge University and Georgia Tech, and a Ph.D. from Dundee University.

Eugene Fichter is a retired Professor of Mechanical Engineering from Oregon State university. His research interests include modelling insect locomotion and the design of walking machines.

Dieter Mueller is currently studying Computer Engineering at George Fox University. He took interest in computers when he was young and has had an insatiable desire to learn more about them ever since.
Dieter spent the summer compiling the Atlas of the Four-Bar Linkage and constructing clever mechanism designs from Geometry Expressions drawings for 3-D printing templates.
