"The Mechanics of Mechanical Watches and Clocks" presents
historical views and mathematical models of mechanical watches and
clocks. Although now over six hundred years old, mechanical watches
and clocks are still popular luxury items that fascinate many
people around the world. However few have examined the theory of
how they work as presented in this book. The illustrations and
computer animations are unique and have never been published
before.
It will be of significant interest to researchers in mechanical
engineering, watchmakers and clockmakers, as well as people who
have an engineering background and are interested in mechanical
watches and clocks. It will also inspire people in other fields of
science and technology, such as mechanical engineering and
electronics engineering, to advance their designs.
Professor Ruxu Du works at the Chinese University of Hong Kong,
