THEORY OF MACHINES
(4th semester)
A.RATIONAL:
Mechanical and Automobile engineering is involved with design, manufacturing and use of various
types of machines. Each machine consists of a large number of static and moving parts called
mechanisms. Theory of machines is study of such different kind of mechanisms.
B.COURSE OBJECTIVES:
Students will develop an ability towards
Understanding machine system consisting of different link assemblies as components
Comprehending Working principle of machine components such as clutch, brakes,
bearings based on friction
Comprehending working principles related to power transmission systems and predicting
the work involved and efficiency.
Comprehending working principle in speed and torque regulating devices such as
governor and flywheels
Determination of amount and position of masses required towards static and dynamic
balancing
Comprehending types and causes of vibration in machines and predicting remedial measures
