A method for the simulation of mechanisms on the electronic analog computer has been developed. In this paper a detailed discussion of the accuracy of the simulation is presented. Particular attention is given to the accuracy of the simulation of the simple kinematic link. Consideration is also made of the accuracy of the simulation when utilized in the study of complete mechanisms, for example, the accuracy to be expected of coupler curves for the four-bar linkage as generated by the simulation. Sample curves are given and their accuracy discussed. General relationships for achievement of an optimal computer system are presented.

A special purpose analog computer system was used to measure evoked auditory responses in children and adults. The responses were studied as a function of stimulus intensity, electrode placement, monaural-binaural stimulus presentation, and stimulus repetition rate. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the use of a summing computer system as a device to assess hearing in children and adults. Consistent evoked responses were obtained near threshold levels. Evoked response patterns vary in different age groups, and the pattern is modified by changes in stimulus parameter and electrode placement. Results suggest that a summing computer may hold real promise as a tool for providing information concerning auditory function.

This paper evaluates the stability of the single mass rotor with internal friction on damped, anisotropic supports. The paper shows under what conditions the rotor stability may be improved by an undamped support with anisotropic stiffness properties. A three dimensional model is presented to show the influence of rotor and support stiffness characteristics on stability. Curves are also presented on how support damping may also improve or even reduce rotor stability. An analog computer solution of the governing equations of motion is presented showing the shaft transient motion for various speed ranges, and also plots of the rotor steady state motion are given for various speeds up to and including the stability threshold. The analysis is used to explain many of the experimental observations of B. L. Newkirk concerning stability due to internal rotor friction.

Spatial mechanisms with up to five links and containing at least one ball joint can be solved by considering the intersection of the three dimensional surfaces which can be generated by portions of the mechanism. This paper presents a method whereby stereoscopic pairs of the surfaces can be drawn using an electronic analog computer and the figures viewed as if they were three dimensional. This results in a far better visualization of the surfaces. In many cases it can be seen what the type of intersection between surfaces is. This determines the gross motion of the mechanism, the limits of its motion, and an estimate of its transmission properties.
