Concept of integrated mechanisms calculation: from calculation scheme — to strength determination

Concept of the ‘Mechanisms calculation’ part of the perspective electronic textbook for Technical Higher Institutions on classical mechanics is given. Within the framework of this part solutions for the synthesis of the calculation procedure based on the steps ‘problem statement – calculation scheme building – kinematics parameters determining – dynamics parameters determining – strength properties of main links of the mechanism calculation’ are described. An illustrative example of crank mechanism calculating is given.
