Abstract: This paper gives a summary of numerical experience of analysis of continuous motion of finite mechanism. The procedure can calculate finite displacement of assemblies composed of rigid bars and pin joints with one degree of freedom. At the beginning of or during the motion, change of degree of freedom, that is bifurcation, and limit point can occur. The algorithm can solve these problems quite easily. We will show the usage of this algorithm in some examples.
