  <abstract>"Mechanisms and Machine Theory: is one of the important technical foundation courses for mechanical students in universities. It covers the basic knowledge needed in analysis and synthesis of commonly-used mechanisms and the dynamics of mechanism systems. This course plays an important part in cultivating their creative ability and great attention has been paid to this course in engineering universities.
This textbook is written according to "The Basic Teaching Requirements for the course of Mechanisms and Machine Theory in Advanced Industrial Colleges". It contains the authors' results on teaching and scientific research during recent years. It aims at cultivating students' basic design ability and creative ability in design. Analytical methods and synthesis of mechanisms are emphasized. This textbook reflects new achievements and developments current in mechanism study. Altogether there are twelve chapters. At the end of most chapters, many thinking problems and exercises are enclosed for benefit of students.
This book can be used as a textbook for the undergraduates specializing in machinery in advanced engineering universities. It can also be used as a reference book for related teachers, students and engineering technicians"-- Back cover.</abstract>
  <tableOfContents>Introduction -- Structural analysis of planar mechanisms -- Kinematic analysis of mechanisms -- Planar linkage mechanisms -- Cam mechanisms -- Gear mechanisms -- Gear trains -- Other mechanisms in common use -- Combined mechanisms -- Balancing of machinery -- Motion of mechanical systems and its regulation -- Creative design of mechanism systems. </tableOfContents>
