Abstract: | During the creation of a modern machine system, the designer must generally develop a mathematical model to investigate the levels of vibrational activity, dynamic stresses, bearing loads and often the acoustic radiation associated with the system. Since all of these phenomena may be represented by field theories whose governing equations of motion may be stated as either differential, integral or integro-differential equations, they are all amenable to solution by the single most powerful computational tool available to the analyst: the finite element method. Mechanism design methodologies based on this versatile technique are reviewed herein, their different characteristics are highlighted and future trends indicated. |
