Features: This textbook was developed to meet the needs of talent cultivation in the 21st century and is one of the main textbooks for the reform of mechanical foundation courses. It is designed for students in major mechanical disciplines, focusing on cultivating their innovative abilities, overall mechanical system design capabilities, and structural design skills. The teaching content is centered on mechanical design, organically integrating and permeating the main content of the traditional three courses: "Mechanics of Machinery," "Mechanical Design," and "Interchangeability and Technical Measurement." The textbook emphasizes the advancedness, practicality, and appropriate expansion of foundational knowledge.
The textbook is divided into four parts, totaling 25 chapters. Part I: General Principles of Mechanical Design (Chapters 2-5) primarily introduces fundamental knowledge related to mechanical design, such as the composition of mechanical systems and mechanisms, strength and stiffness issues in mechanical design, and the basics of precision design. Part II: Design of Mechanical Components and Mechanisms (Chapters 6-18) focuses on the parameter design and motion design of mechanical components and mechanisms. Part III: Structural Design of Mechanical Components (Chapters 19-21) primarily discusses the structural design of mechanical components and sealing structures. Part IV: Design of Mechanical Systems and System Dynamics (Chapters 22-25) covers the conceptual design of mechanical systems, system dynamics design, and dimensional chain analysis.
This textbook can serve as a foundational textbook for mechanical design in various mechanical disciplines at universities and colleges, as well as a reference for faculty, students, and engineering professionals in related fields.
