ON THE NUMERICAL COMPUTATION OF GENERALIZED BURMESTER POINTS

This note describes a procedure for plane higher-curvature path analys is and synthesis. All coefficients have been written in terms of eleme ntary instantaneous invariants. This facilitates the numerical computa tion of Generalized Burmester Points for a moving link of a planar mec hanism in a non-symmetric position. FORTRAN subroutines have been writ ten and a numerical example is provided.
