Abstract
In this paper a relevant contribution of Archimedes is outlined as related to his developments in mechanics with application to mechanism design with a modern vision. He developed theoretical advances that were motivated and applied to practical problems with an enthusiastic behaviour with a modern spirit that can be summarized in his motto ‘Give me a place to stand and I will move the earth’.
