Introduction:
Theory of Machines: may be defined as that branch of engineering science, which deals with the study of relative motion between the various parts of machine, and forces which act on them. The knowledge of this subject is very essential for an engineer in designing the various parts of a machine.
Sub- divisions of theory of Machines:
They Theory of Machines may be sub- divided into the following four branches:
1- Kinematics: is that branch of theory of machines which is responsible to study the motion of bodies without reference to the forces which are cause this motion, i.e it’s relate the motion variables (displacement, velocity, acceleration) with the time.
2- Kinetics: is that branch of theory of machines which is responsible to relate the action of forces on bodies to their resulting motion.
3- Dynamics: is that branch of theory of machines which deals with the forces and their effects, while acting upon the machine parts in motion.
4- Statics: is that branch of theory of machines which deals with the forces and their effects, while the machine parts are rest

12. Steering mechanism.
