Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a mechanism designed to operate at high speeds. Identify and discuss the potential issues that might arise from applying graphical synthesis methods in this scenario.

💡 Hint: Reflect on what happens with increased motion forces.

Challenge 2 Hard

Evaluate a real-world mechanism you use daily (like a bicycle or car) and identify how rigidity and precision in its design affect its performance.

💡 Hint: Think about how the mechanics of your example ensure effective operation.
