Synthesis of Multi-link Mechanisms for Dynamic Specifications.

Abstract: Design of multi-link constrained (single degree of freedom input) mechanical systems to satisfy required, exact, dynamic state specifications of the output links at multiple positions given a specified or controlled dynamic state of the input link for those positions. Includes software to accomplish such synthesis for several classes of linkage systems.
