Anna University Approved Faculty Development Programme on " ME6401- Kinematics of Machinery"

The study of the kinematics of machines lies at the very core of a mechanical engineering background. Fundamentals of Kinematics of Machines and Mechanisms brings the subject alive and current. Important areas of many technologies such as mechanism design, robots, automobiles, aircraft, satellites, tremendous advances and innovations have been made by applying this subject knowledge.
