Kinematic Geometry
What is ?
The algebra and calculus of pairs of vectors, such as forces and moments and angular and linear velocity, that arise in the kinematics and dynamics of rigid bodies.
A mathematical formulation for the geometry of lines which is central to rigid body dynamics, where lines form the screw axes of spatial movement and the lines of action of forces.
A tool in robot mechanics, mechanical design, computational geometry and multi-body dynamics.
Chasles’ Theorem
The most general rigid body displacement can be produced by a translation along a line followed (or preceded) by a rotation about that line

Vibration Analysis via Screw Theory
- Main Goals
To consider vibration of mechanisms and robots that consist of several rigid bodies as infinitesimal motion in 2-dim or 3-dim space.
To analyze vibration of mechanisms and robots via screw theory.
To investigate that vibration centers of mechanisms and robots are the same as the centers(axes) of screw motions.
