Abstract
As an extension of the authors published work on a search algorithm for motion generation with Grashof, transmission angle and linkage perimeter conditions [P.J. Martin, K. Russell, R.S. Sodhi, On mechanism design optimization for motion generation, Mechanism and Machine Theory 42 (10) (2007) 1251-1263], this work formulates a goal program to generate four-bar mechanism fixed and moving pivot loci that considers prescribed coupler poses, a coupler load and maximum driver static torques.
