The Appendix K.1 folder (which is available for download at https://www.routledge.com/p/book/9781032328317) includes the MATLAB and SimMechanics files for the kinematic analysis and simulation of RRSS mechanisms*. These three files are described in Table K.1. To conduct a kinematic analysis, the user specifies the mechanism point coordinates and the crank motion parameters in the file Kinematic_RRSS_Simulate.m. Values are specified for link variables a0, ua0, a1, ua1, b0, b1, p1, q1, and r1 (Figure K.1a). Values are also specified for the initial crank angle (start_ang), the crank rotation increment (step_ang), and the final crank angle (
