This summary provides an integrated perspective on the principles and methodologies underpinning rigid body dynamics and motion analysis. The field examines solid bodies whose internal configurations ...

Many industries in the last decade successfully implemented finite-element analysis as a tool for product development. The success of FEA is now being followed by more widely used motion-analysis ...

When computer-aided engineering (CAE) methods became available for design work in the 1980s, finite element analysis (FEA) was the first to be widely adopted. Over the years, it's helped design ...
