      abstract     = {Nowadays, there is a constant demand of mechanisms that
                      operate at higher speeds and with good accuracy without
                      compromising its reliability. This requires that the
                      mechanism possess good dynamic behavior. The dynamics are
                      traditionally considered at the end of the mechanism design
                      process. If any problem is detected in this stage, it is
                      necessary to go back in the design process for
                      recalculation, leading to undesirable loops. This is
                      particularly challenging for linkages that operate at high
                      speeds because of the inherent nonlinearity of the system.
                      The nonlinear motion of the system generates periodic forces
                      with multiple harmonics that can excite one of the
                      eigenfrequencies of the system. If the forces are low and
                      the eigenfrequencies of the system are far enough from the
                      harmonic components of high amplitude, the dynamic response
                      of the system can be of low amplitude. However, these facts
                      are not commonly analyzed in the early stages of the design
                      process.Methods to include the dynamic considerations in the
                      early stages of the mechanism design process are presented
                      in this dissertation. They are applied to function-generator
                      linkages, namely four-bar linkages and Watt II linkages. The
                      input link of the mechanisms rotates at constant rate while
                      the output link swings. The latter link moves a body of
                      constant inertia.Different approaches are studied starting
                      with a parametric study of the effects that a swinging body
                      has on the reaction forces on the joints of a four-bar
                      linkage. Then, four bar linkages are synthesized for the
                      case of moving an external body of extremely high inertia,
                      and then, for a more general case. After that, six-bar
                      linkages are synthesized with two heuristic methods, the
                      genetic algorithm and the non-dominated sorting genetic
                      algorithm modified (NSGA II). These approaches consider the
                      force on the joints as a first indicator of good dynamic
                      behavior and constrain the first eigenfrequency, among other
                      variables. The resulting mechanism are compared against an
                      elastic multibody simulation. Comparative results show a
                      good correlation between resulting mechanisms and
                      simulations, with predictable forces, relatively low
                      vibration of the links and low deviation of the flexible
                      output link with respect to a rigid model.},
