This book contains the Proceedings of the Second International Symposium on the Education in Mechanism and Machine Science (ISEMMS 2017), which was held in Madrid, Spain. The Symposium has established a stable framework for exchanging experience among researchers regarding mechanism and machine science, with special emphasis on New Learning Technologies and globalization. The papers cover topics such as mechanism and machine science in mechanical engineering curricula; mechanism and machine science in engineering programs: methodology; mechanism and machine science in engineering programs: applications and research; and new trends in mechanical engineering education.
Computational kinematics is an enthralling area of science with a rich spectrum of problems at the junction of mechanics, robotics, computer science, mathematics, and computer graphics. The covered topics include design and optimization of cable-driven robots, analysis of parallel manipulators, motion planning, numerical methods for mechanism calibration and optimization, geometric approaches to mechanism analysis and design, synthesis of mechanisms, kinematical issues in biomechanics, construction of novel mechanical devices, as well as detection and treatment of singularities. The results should be of interest for practicing and research engineers as well as Ph.D. students from the fields of mechanical and electrical engineering, computer science, and computer graphics.
