Mech Sylabus 21

This document outlines a course on Theory of Machines - I that is worth 4+1 credits. The objectives of the course are to provide concepts of kinematics and kinetics of machine elements and basics of power transmission. The outcomes are that learners should be able to define machine components, construct mechanisms for specific motions, and draw velocity and acceleration diagrams. The course is divided into 3 modules that cover kinetics of rigid bodies, basic kinematics, and velocity/acceleration analysis of mechanisms using graphical approaches.
