Abstract: An analytical formulation for computing kinematic sensitivity of the spatial four-bar mechanism is presented. The experimental code developed is used to compute an assembled configuration for the mechanism due to a design variation. The mechanism is modeled using graph theory where a body is defined as a node and a kinematic joint is defined as an edge. The spherical joint is cut to convert the model into a tree structure by cutting an edge and introducing constraints. The effect of variation... (Update)
