* The book introduces spatial mechanisms using both vectors andmatrices, which introduces the topic from two vantage points. * Comprehensive and authoritative coverage. * Several real-world problems are included to show how to apply thebasic principles in a realistic setting.

This text uses an integrated and interactive set of materials to teach students about the process of engineering design. Using a very strong engineering context and providing an experiential resource, this material exposes students to the cognitive and interpersonal skills required to execute the design process and introduces them to some of the productivity tools used by engineers. Phases of the design process are covered, which reflect the new ABET accreditation criteria. These areas include Defining the Problem, Formulating Solutions, Developing Models and Prototypes and Presenting the Design. Topics on Decision-Making, Communication, Collaboration and Self-Management are also presented, in order for students to learn how these various skills are best applied to each phase of the design process. Suitable for a freshman/sophomore Introductory Design course, Dominick's book can also be used for some upper-level design courses. The text is meant to support student work on a variety of design projects regardless of engineering discipline.

A perfect refresher on the kinematics and dynamics of machinery. The book uses analytical techniques, without complex mathematics, in the design of mechanical devices. Included with the book is a set of programs, written in MATLAB, which can be run to illustrate kinematics principles. The source code is also provided so readers can modify and customize the programs.
