The original manuscripts are pre- pared by persons thoroughly qualified both and ^ technically by experience to write with authority, and in many cases they are regularly elsewhere in employed practical work as experts. The manuscripts are then carefully edited to make them suit- able for correspondence instruction. The Instruction Papers are written and in the clearly simplest language possible, so as to make them understood all readily by students. Necessary technical expressions are clearly explained when introduced. The of great majority our students wish to prepare them- selves for advancement in their vocations or to qualify for more congenial occupations. Usually they are employed and able to devote a only few hours a day to study. Therefore effort must be every made to give them practical and accurate in information clear and concise form and to make this infor- mation include all of the essentials but none of the non- essentials. To make the text clear, illustrations are used These freely. illustrations are especially made by our own in Illustrating Department order to adapt them fully to the requirements of the text. In the table of contents that immediately follows are given the titles of the Sections included in this volume, and under eacli title are listed the main topics discussed. INTERNATIONAL TEXTBOOK COMPANY B CONTENTS NOTE. This volume is made up of a number of separate parts, or sections, as indicated by their titles, and the page numbers of each usually begin with 1. In this list of contents the titles of the parts are given in the order in which they appear in the book, and tinder each title is a full synopsis of the subjects treated.

The science that treats of the motions of bodies and of the forces that produce or tend to produce such motions is called mechanics. Applied mechanics comprises the principles of pure mechanics as applied to the design and construction of machinery or to works of engineering The part of applied mechanics that relates to machinery is called the mechanics of machinery. The mechanics of machinery may be divided into two. chief branches: kinematics of machinery, treating of the motions of machine parts without regard to the forces acting- dynamics of machinery, treating of the forces acting on machine parts and of the transmission of force from one part to another. 2. Free and Constrained Motion. A is said be body to free when it move in may any direction in obedience to the forces acting on it. A body is constrained when the nature or direction of its motion is determined by its con- nection with other bodies. Examples of free bodies are the moon, the sun, and other heavenly bodies. Examples of constrained bodies are seen m every machine. Thus, the crosshead of an engine is con- SUldeS ' Md the Shaft ^ the b in w If -ings COPV R1S H TKD BV , NTBRNAT10NAL TBXTB LINK MECHANISMS In constrained motion, every point of the constrained body is forced to move in a definite path, no matter what may IDC the direction of the force that causes the motion. Any lorce that tends to give the body some other motion is at once neutralized by an equal and opposite force developed in the constraining members. For example, the block a, Fig. 1, is enclosed by stationary guides b and c and its only possible motion therefore is a sliding motion along the line EF. Suppose that the acting force P has the direction of the line MN. Then, if a were free, the force
