Studying Two Stephenson mechanism linked by One joints


Abstract in English

We study a planar mechanical system generated by two six-bar mechanism with revolute joints, then we link them by revolute joint to become one system . After that we replace each revolute joint with super elastic hinge. The main purpose of this paper is to elaborate a mathematical method able to estimate the deviations of the considered system before and after replacing revolute hinges, taking into account that new system creates large additional deviations .
