Sem: 4th Mechanical(2013-2014)
Staff In charge: Mr.Chethan Madappady

Course Objectives:

To understand the kinematics of mechanical elements such as linkages, gears, and

cams and learn to design such elements to accomplish desired motions or tasks.
To introduce you to kinematics of various real-life machines and mechanisms such as

linkages, Gears, gear trains , Cams etc

To impart students with knowledge about displacement, velocity, acceleration in

machines elements.
