Abstract
A computer program, MSAP, will calculate forces and moments throughout a stiffness-sensitive linkage. It uses information obtained from prototype testing. Advanced methods in 3-D linkage analysis and finite element modeling have been implemented. Input features assist the designer in modeling the linkage and make MSAP easy to use.
