Abstract
This contribution presents a closed-form solution for the location of the a cceleration center of a rigid body subjected to spatial motion. Moreover, a ll the special cases are deduced and analyzed by a systematic analysis of t he conditions under which the closed-form solution cannot be computed. Fina lly, the results obtained here are compared with those previously published . (C) Elsevier, Paris.
