Abstract
In this paper it is shown how a general 2-DoF dyad can be designed mass equivalent to a general (1-DoF) link element. This is useful in the synthesis of balanced mechanisms, for instance to increase or reduce the number of DoFs of a balanced mechanism maintaining its balance. Also it can be used as a simple approach for synthesis of complex balanced mechanisms. For finding the parameters for mass equivalence, a mass equivalent model with real and virtual equivalent masses is used. First the characteristics of this model are explained, then the properties of a mass equivalent dyad are shown. Subsequently with two methods the parameters of a mass equivalent dyad are derived and application examples are illustrated and discussed
