S23  Projeto de Sistemas Mecânicos    Titulo: DESENVOLVIMENTO DE UM PROGRAMA PARA DAR APOIO AO PROJETO DE CAMES   Resumo : DEVELOPMENT OF A PROGRAM TO GIVE SUPPORT TO THE PROJECT OF CAMS ABSTRACT. IN THIS WORK A PROGRAM IS PRESENTED IN C++ STARTING FROM WHICH THE DISPLACEMENT, VELOCITY AND ACCELERATION DIAGRAMS OF THE CAM FOLLOWER ARE GENERATED, AS WELL AS THE RESPECTIVE PROFILE OF THE CAM. THE PROGRAM ALLOWS THE USER THE CHOICE OF THE TYPE OF CURVES - CYCLOIDAL, HARMONIC AND EIGHTH-ORDER POLINOMIAL - THAT WILL CHARACTERIZE THE MOVEMENT DIAGRAMS AND THE PROFILE OF THE CAM. ONCE THE DATA ARE SUPPLIED BY THE USER, THE DISPLACEMENT DIAGRAM IS TRACED IN SUCH WAY THAT THERE IS A PERFECT CONCORDANCE AMONG THE CURVES THAT COMPOSE IT, BEING STILL SUPPLIED THE VELOCITY AND ACCELERATION DIAGRAMS, THE PROFILE OF THE CAME AND VALUES OF THE PRESSURE ANGLE TO SOME CAM ANGLES DURING A CYCLE. IT WAS OBSERVED THAT THE USE OF THE PROGRAM IS EASY AND THE SAME CAN BE USED AS DIDACTIC SUPPORT. WORD-KEY: CAM, DISPLACEMENT DIAGRAM, ANGLE OF PRESSURE, CAM PROFILE     Autores : Bezerra, Roberto Araújo Porto, Eduardo Castelo B.     Trabalho Completo :   COBEM99 | Comissão  Organizadora | Palestras | Sessões Técnicas | Autor | Simpósios e Sessões Especiais | Revisores |  Título  dos  Trabalhos | Local
