Coordinate Systems
• Cartesian (Rx, Ry)
• Polar (RA, q)
• Converting between the two
RA  Rx 2  Ry 2
q  arctanRy Rx 
Rx  R A cos q
R y  R A sin q
• Position Difference, Relative position
– Difference (one point, two times)
– relative (two points, same time)

4.3 Translation, Rotation, and
Complex motion
• Translation: keeps the same angle
• Rotation: one point does not move
• Complex motion: a combination of rotation
and translation

Complex Numbers as Vectors
• We can plot complex numbers on the realimaginary plane
• Euler identity e±iq=cos q ± i sin q
• Cartesian form: RAcos q + i RAsin q
Imaginary
• Polar form: RAeiq
• Multiplying by eiq
corresponds to rotating
by q
Real

Sixbar Linkages
• Stephenson’s sixbar can sometimes be solved as a
fourbar and then a fivebar linkage
• R1R2R3R4, then R4R5R6R7R8
• R3 and R5 have a constant angle between them
• If motor is at O6 you have to solve eqns. simultaneously

• Once the unknown angles have been found it is
easy to find any position on the linkage
