Problems in mechanisms analysis and synthesis and robotics lead naturally to systems of polynomial equations. This paper reviews the state of the art in the solution of such systems of equations. Three well-known methods for solving systems of polynomial equations, viz., Dialytic Elimination, Polynomial Continuation, and Grobner bases are reviewed. The methods are illustrated by means of simple examples. We also review important kinematic analysis and synthesis problems and their solutions using these mathematical procedures.

SynopsisA model of a predator–prey system showing group defence on the part of the prey is formulated, and reduced to a three-parameter family of quartic polynomial systems of equations. Mathematically, this system contains the Volterra–Lotka system, and yields numerous kinds of bifurcation phenomena, including a codimension-two singularity of cusp type, in a neighbourhood of which the quartic system realises every phase portrait possible under small smooth perturbation. Biologically, the nonmonotonic behaviour of the predator response function allows existence of a second singularity in the first quadrant, so that the system exhibits an enrichment paradox, and, for certain choices of parameters, coexistence of stable oscillation and a stable equilibrium.
