In order to obtain partial balancing of the shaking force of a spatial 4-bar RCCC linkage, three counterweights are attached to moving links of the RCCC linkage respectively and optimal vectors of the position of the counterweights are computed by optimization procedure BFS or BFGS (Broyden-Fletcher...
