Abstract
At the end of twentieth century, the subject of the theory of mechanisms and machines greatly expanded. Multi-engine machines with open and closed kinematic chains become widespread. Requirements to precision of mechanisms increased. PCs became widely used in the learning process. All this resulted in the need to modernize the course on the theory of mechanisms and machines. This paper describes the modernization of the discipline “Theory of mechanisms and machines” undertaken at the St. Petersburg State Polytechnic University [1]. Modernization encompassed structural, geometric, kinematic and force analysis of mechanisms and affected the problems concerning the dynamics of machines [2].
