ME 470 Quiz 1

QuestionAnswer
mechanical systems are classified by what? their mobility (M) or degrees of freedom (DOF)
what are DOF's? number of independent parameters needed to uniquely define their positions in space at any instant with respect to a selected frame of reference
a rigid body in a place has how many DOF's? 3 DOF's: 2 lengths and 1 angle
a rigid boy in 3D space had how many DOF's? 6 DOF's: 3 lengths and 3 angles
kinematic bodies are _______ & _________ rigid & massless
a rigid body = a __________ ________ kinematic link
what are the three types of motion? translation, rotation, complex
for translation what remains unchanged? its angular orientation
translation, rotation, or complex? linear position of a body changes with respect to a fixed frame trasnlation
translation, rotation, or complex? angular orientation of a body changes about a fixed frame of refrence rotation
for rotation which position remains fixed? linear position
what is complex motion? simultaneous combination of translation and rotation motions
what is this? assemblage of links & joints, interconnected in a way to provide controlled output motion in response to supplied motion kinematic chain
what is this? kinematic chain where at least one link has been grounded or attached to a frame of refrence mechanism
what is this? collection of mechanisms arranged to transmit forces and do work machine
what are linkages? basic building blocks for all mechanisms made up of links and joints
what is a link? rigid body possessing at least 2 nodes
what are nodes? points for attachment to other links
what are joints? connection between 2 or more links
what are the three types of links? binary, ternary, quaternary
what is a binary link? a link with 2 nodes
what is a ternary link? a link with 3 nodes
what is a quaternary link? a link with 4 nodes
what are joints? connections between 2 or more links at their nodes
joint allow for a __________ motion between the connected links contained
joints are also known as what? kinematic pairs
you can classify joints by the number of __________ allowed at the joint. DOF's
you can classify joints by type of contact between _________ elements (point, lines, surfaces)
you can classify joints by the type of physical _________ of joint closure
you can classify joints by the number of ________ joined at the joint links
how many degrees of freedom does a full joint have? 1 DOF
what are examples of full joints? rotating pin or translating slider
how many degrees of freedom does a half joint have? 2 DOF's
what are examples of half joints? roll-slide joint
the order a full joint is one _________ than the number of links joined less than
if DOF is greater than or equal to one than it is a ___________ mechanism
if DOF is equal to 0 then its a _________ structure
if DOF is equal to -1 then its a ______________ preloaded structure
what is the Grueber condition? any link in a plane has 3 DOF's
for a full joint (lower pair) the contact happens where? over the surface
full joints allow ________ DOF(s) and remove ________ DOF(s) allows 1 DOF, removed 2 DOF's
for a full joint (lower pair) the contact happens where? over a line or point
half joints allow ________ DOF(s) and remove ________ DOF(s) allows 2 DOF's, removes 1 DOF
3 links on one pin --> ________ revolute joints two
what is this? any link(s) that are fixed (non-moving) with respect to reference frame ground
what is this? link which makes complete revolution and is pivoted to ground? crank
what is this? link which has oscillatory (back & forth) rotation and is pivoted to ground rocker
what is this? connecting rod which has complex motion and is not pivoted to ground coupler
any full joint can be replaced by a half joint but this will __________ DOF by one increase
removal of a link will ___________ DOF by one reduce
4-bars have a __________ DOF mobility single
the linkage is Grashof if: at least one link will be capable of a complete revolution relative to any other link
type one Grashof examples are: crank-rocker, double crank, Grashof double-rocker
type two Grashof examples are: only double rockers
for position analysis what approach do we use? Vector Loop
