Kinematic Chain Course
This course equips you with essential skills in kinematic chains for planar mechanisms, covering forward kinematics for 3R arms, Jacobian computations, degrees of freedom evaluation using Gruebler/Kutzbach criterion, singularity analysis, and workspace optimisation. You will gain practical expertise to inform superior decisions on link dimensions, joint constraints, and motor choices in mechanism design, ensuring robust and efficient engineering solutions.

What will I learn?
Gain rapid expertise in planar mechanisms, revolute joints, workspace analysis, singularities, and Gruebler/Kutzbach mobility criterion. Master frame setup, link parameters, 3R arm forward kinematics, Jacobian construction and interpretation, applying these to optimise motor selection, set joint limits, and design reliable mechanisms.
