Abstract

The acceleration analysis of a mechanism consists of formulating and solving equations to determine the passive joint accelerations of the mechanism from the active joint accelerations of the mechanism, and vice versa. The acceleration analysis presupposes that the position and velocity analyses of the mechanism under analysis have been previously solved. The analytical methods are based on the handling of analytic functions and their time derivatives which are obtained from vector loops. Analytical methods are very popular among those who begin in the study of the instantaneous kinematics of mechanisms due to the abstraction they perform in the problems they intend to solve.
