Velocities Analysis of Mechanisms ( )
(Relative Velocity Method)
3.1 Introduction
The study of motion of various parts of the mechanisms and machines is important for
determining their positions, velocities and accelerations at different moments. In this
chapter, the velocity analysis for the mechanisms can be carried out by graphical method
(Velocity polygon) based on the relative velocity method.
3.2 Velocity Analysis
Velocity is the rate of change of displacement. Velocity can be linear velocity or angular
velocity.
Linear velocity dx
vdt
, and angular velocity d
dt
.
The relation between the linear velocity and angular velocity can be obtained as:
x r leading to dx d
v r rdt dt
(where
d
dt
).
In the kinematic analysis of mechanisms and machines, the velocities of different links or
parts can be obtained by using one the following methods:
(i) Relative velocity method or velocity polygon method
(ii) Instantaneous centre method
(iii) Analytical method
In this course, the velocity polygon method is discussed and used for determining the
velocities and accelerations of various mechanisms.
3.3 Relative Velocity Method
Consider a rigid link OA of length rOA (or OA) rotates about a fixed point O with a uniform
angular velocity OA (rad/sec) in clockwise direction as illustrated in Figure (1). For a small
rotation through an angle d in a time dt , the point A will move along the arc AA as shown.

The velocity of point A relative to the fixed point O can be expressed as:
ao OA OAr d
v rdt
(Absolute velocity)
Absolute Velocity is defined as the velocity of a point with respect to a fixed point.
The velocity of A is OA OAr and is perpendicular to OA. This is can be represented by a vector
oa as shown in Figure (1c).
Consider a point B located on the link OA. The velocity of point B is b OA OBv r
perpendicular to OB and is represented by a vector ob. From the Figure (1):

OBob OB
oa OA OA

v v OB
v v OA
It is noted from the diagram that, the point b divided the vector oa in the same ratio the
point B divides the link OA. Then, the proportionality law is very useful in the drawing of the
velocity and acceleration polygons in order to find the relative velocities and accelerations of
the points on the links or parts.
Note that: Usually small letters (oa, ob,) are used to represent the vectors in velocity polygon
while the capital letters (OA, OB,.) are used to represent the length of the links in space
diagrams.
The application of the relative velocity method is illustrated through the following examples.

3.3.1 Example 1- Slider-crank Mechanism
Consider a slider-crank mechanism used in the reciprocating engine in which the crankshaft
OA rotates with uniform angular velocity (rad/sec) in clockwise direction as illustrated in
Figure (2). The slider P moves on a fixed guide G. The crank OA and slider P are joined by a
connecting rod AP. The velocities of these links of the mechanism can be obtained by
drawing the velocity polygon.
Figure (2): Velocity analysis of slider-crank mechanism
(1) Drawing the given mechanism by using a suitable scale.
(2) For a given angular velocity (rad/sec), determine the velocity of point A relative to
the fixed point O, i.e., a o ao aov v v v ( 0ov is the velocity of the fixed point O).
(3) To start drawing the velocity polygon, choose a point o and draw the vector oa
perpendicular to the link OA to some suitable scale as illustrated in Figure (2b).
(4) The velocity of the slider P relative to the point A ( pav ) is perpendicular to the link
AP. Then from point a (velocity polygon), draw a vector ap of unknown magnitude
but in the perpendicular direction to the link AP.
(5) The velocity of the slider P relative to guide G ( pgv ) is along the line of the cylinder.
Since there is no relative motion between G and O, the point g on the velocity polygon
can be assumed to be at the point o (Fig. 2b). Then from point g, draw a line parallel
to the cylinder (or OG) to intersect vector ap at the point p. Therefore, the vector gp
represents the velocity of the slider P.
(6) The velocity of point B located on the connecting rod AP can be obtained by using the
following relation:

The point b on the velocity vector ap can be located as shown in the velocity polygon (Fig.
2b). The vector ob is then represented the absolute velocity of point B.
3.3.2 Rubbing Velocity at a Pin Joint
The links or parts in the mechanisms are usually connected together by a pin joints as shown
in Figure (3).

Figure (3): Pin joint of two links
Let 1 is the angular velocity of link 1 (rad/sec).
2 is the angular velocity of link 2 (rad/sec).
r is the radius of the pin at the joint.
The rubbing velocity at the pin is defined as the algebraic difference between the angular
velocities of the two links that connected at the pin joint. The rubbing velocity rubv at the pin
joint can be obtained as:
(a) 1 2rub pinv r when the two links are moved in the same direction.
(b) 1 2rub pinv r when the two links are moved in the opposite direction.
Example (1): The crank of a slider-crank mechanism is rotating at 300rpm in the clockwise
direction. The length of the crank is 150mm and connecting rod is 600mm long. When the
crank has turned through an angle of 45o with the horizontal as shown in Figure (4), find:
(1) The velocity of the slider p,
(2) The angular velocity of the connecting rod AP,

(3) The velocity of the mid-point C of the connecting rod AP, and
(4) The rubbing velocity at pin joints O and A if the radius of the pin joint is 15mm.
