Acceleration Analysis
Fig. 3.4
g1 b1 = o1 a1 + a1 ba + ba b1
The crank OA rotates at a uniform velocity, therefore, the acceleration of A
relative to O has only the centripetal component. Similarly, the slider moves in
a linear direction and thus has no centripetal component.

3. For the third vector, draw a line ^ to AB through the head ba of the
second vector.
4. For the fourth vector, draw a line through g1 parallel to the line of motion
of the slider.
This completes the velocity diagram.
Acceleration of the slider B = o1 b1 (or g1 b1)
Total acceleration of B relative to A = a1 b1
Note that for the given configuration of the mechanism, the direction of the
acceleration of the slider is opposite to that of the velocity. Therefore, the
acceleration is negative or the slider is decelerating while moving to the right.
Example 3.1 Figure 3.5(a) shows the configuration diagram of a four-link
mechanism along with the lengths of the links in mm. The link AB has an instantaneous
angular velocity of 10.5 rad/s and a retardation of 26 rad/s2 in the counter-clockwise
direction. Find
(i) the angular accelerations of the links BC and CD
(ii) the linear accelerations of the points E, F and G.

This shows that on the same line joining b1 and c1, arrowhead should be marked in
the other direction so that it represents the vector of acceleration of B relative to C to
satisfy the latter equation. This implies that in case both the ends of a link are in
motion, the arrowhead may be put in either direction or no arrowhead is put at all. This
is because every time it is not necessary to write the acceleration equation. The
acceleration equation is helpful only at the initial stage for better comprehension.]
