Four Bar mechanism loci

Dec 29, 2003 0 Replies

What are the parameteric coordinates of closed loops generated by intersection point F between b and c and intersection point I between a and c extensions in a quadrilateral of sides a,b,c,d ( side a smallest,side d largest, angle th variable/parameter between a and d )? These occur in a four bar linkage mechanism . The book "4 Bar Atlas"(by Hrones and Nelson) does not include parameteric equations. TIA.
