Kinematics & Dynamics of Machines — In-line slider-crank mechanism

Consider an in-line slider-crank mechanism as shown in attached figure. The crank is described by the vector R = iM + jN and the connecting rod length L, where M, N, and L will correspond to the following:

M = 3.625,

N = 6.125, and

L = 8.125.

See the attached figure for typical slider-crank mechanism.

Find the connecting rod orientation and the slider position and follow the detail instructions below:

Project MUST meet the following requirements:

Use analytical vector method (cross product) for positional analysis.

Use graphical method for positional analysis.

Compare between analytical and graphical methods.

Calculate the velocity and average velocity of the piston.

Perform parameter studies and generate the figure similar to Figure 3.6.
