Mechanism design | Auction theory

Budget-feasible mechanism

In mechanism design, a branch of economics, a budget-feasible mechanism is a mechanism in which the total payment made by the auctioneer is upper-bounded by a fixed pre-specified budget. They were first presented by Yaron Singer, and studied by several others. * v * t * e (Wikipedia).

Intermittent Planetary Mechanism

This mechanism produces a reciprocating movement, with the forward always longer than the backward. It uses a planetary mechanism with two inputs, the sun and the ring. The output is the arm. The inputs are provided by an intermittent mechanism, with one gear moving two others, one at a ti
