Abstract Kenneth Henderson Hunt, see Fig. 1, was the Foundation Professor of Engineering, and the inaugural Dean of the Faculty of Engineering at Monash University, Victoria, Australia. He was the Dean of Engineering from 1961 until 1975 and then served as the Chair of Mechanism from 1976 until 1985. He is remembered as the scientist who rediscovered Ball's theory of screws and who made significant contributions to screw system theory which he applied to the kinematics of spatial mechanisms, shaft couplings, and robotics. Kenneth authored two classical books Mechanisms and Motion and Kinematic Geometry of Mechanisms, and co-authored the more modern text Robots and Screw Theory: Applications of Kinematics and Statics to Robotics. He was also one of the founding fathers, contributing to the foundation act with the initial member organizations, of the International Federation for the Theory of Machines and Mechanisms (in 1998 the official name was changed to IFToMM, acronym for the International Federation for the Promotion of Mechanism and Machine Science). The federation was officially born in 1969 and Kenneth served on the first Executive Council and was the founding chairman of the Australian Committee.

反思 Kenneth H. Hunt 的生平及其对 Mechanism 的贡献

摘要 Kenneth Henderson Hunt,见图 1,是澳大利亚维多利亚州莫纳什大学工程学院的基础教授和工程学院的首任院长。他从 1961 年到 1975 年担任工程学院院长,然后从 1976 年到 1985 年担任机构主席。人们记得他是重新发现鲍尔的螺杆理论的科学家,并对他应用于运动学的螺杆系统理论做出了重大贡献空间机构、联轴器和机器人。Kenneth 撰写了两本经典书籍 Mechanisms and Motion 和 Kinematic Geometry of Mechanisms,并合着了更现代的文本 Robots and Screw Theory: Applications of Kinematics and Statics to Robotics。他也是创始人之一,与最初的成员​​组织一起为基金会行为做出了贡献,国际机械与机械理论联合会(1998年正式名称改为IFToMM,International Federation for the Promotion of Mechanism and Machine Science)。该联合会于 1969 年正式诞生,肯尼斯曾在第一届执行委员会任职,并且是澳大利亚委员会的创始主席。
