Engineering Mechanics for Robotic Systems Volume 2: Build the mechanical intelligence behind real robotic machines.

By STEM School

Engineering Mechanics for Robotic Systems Volume 2 is a practical continuation for readers who want to move beyond basic mechanics and understand how real robotic systems are structured, powered, measured, simulated, built, tested, and improved. Instead of treating robot design as separate topics in mechanics, electronics, control, and fabrication, this volume connects them into one applied engineering workflow where load paths, actuator selection, sensing, simulation, and prototype validation work together.

Inside, readers explore the mechanical decisions that determine whether a robot frame resists bending, a motor delivers enough torque, a drivetrain moves efficiently, a sensor gives reliable feedback, and a prototype performs as expected under real operating conditions. The book covers essential applied topics such as structural loading, stiffness, deflection, shafts, fasteners and engineering troubleshooting. Each chapter is written for learners who want to move from isolated formulas to complete system-level engineering judgment.

This volume is especially useful for readers working with mobile robots, robotic arms, differential-drive platforms, automation machines where mechanical behavior must match electronic control and software logic. This is a practical next step for anyone who wants to design robots that are not only functional, but measurable, reliable, manufacturable, and ready for advanced robotics and industrial automation.
