Figure 2.1 shows an apparatus used to rehabilitate the elbow for a variety of medical conditions. The apparatus consists of a cylindrical bar with a track in which a slider can move. The bar is strapped and fixed on the patient's body while the hand is strapped on the slider. (a) Describe and sketch the apparatus as a four-bar mechanism assuming that the shoulder joint, the elbow joint, the lower and upper arms are part of the mechanism. (b) Assign reasonable lengths to the links of the mechanism you have described in part (a); calculate the velocities of the lower and upper arms when the slider is at the middle of the track and going downwards at a speed of 0.2 m/s. Cylindrical bar Straps, Slider Figure 2.1 In all your answers, state and justify your assumptions and comment on your working. 30% of the marks will be assigned for the quality of your assumptions, comments and presentation of your solutions.

Hi, I have been given this pin-jointed frame analysis to solve (see pictures of the structure attached). Can you help me? The Figure 2 attached is a simplified structure to undertake a structural analysis on a concept design for a low cost stroller/buggy for children. The buggy consists of a number of metal sections that are pin-jointed together. The buggy is designed to accommodate a child of mass no more than 20 kg, sat on the seat which is supported at four points (Fc) on the frame of the buggy. Assume that the weight of the child is equally distributed across all of the points indicated on Figure 2 as Fc. Assume that there are no additional forces applied to the handle of the buggy, that the buggy is static (stationary) and that the buggy, and the elements of the frame have no mass. At points A and G, there are roll supports. At Points B, F and D there are the pin supports. I am required to determine the following: 1) Draw a free-body diagram of the structure 2) Simplify the Free…

C C' C' z = 0 2a D 2a 2a 60° D 2a A square plate of size 2ax2a is constrained by a pair of hinges at A and B and a strut CD. Assume that the hinges constrain every degree of freedom except for rotation about the z-axis. The strut is attached to the plate and the base by ball-and-socket joints. The point C is in the middle of the upper edge of the plate, so that its z-coordinate is equal to - a. The point D is along the x-axis. What is the force in the strut due to hydrostatic pressure induced by the water on the right. The mass density of water is p; the plate weight is small.
