Kinematic synthesis

Kinematic synthesis refers to the process of designing and creating mechanisms that achieve specific motion characteristics or trajectories. It involves the formulation of kinematic chains—sets of links connected by joints—and the determination of their dimensions and configurations to produce desired movements. Key aspects of kinematic synthesis include: 1. **Kinematic Chains**: These are rigid bodies (links) connected by movable pairs (joints), allowing motion. The analysis and design of these chains help determine how they move in relation to one another.
