networks is explained and a definition is suggested for duality.
Dual couplings are defined and several couplings dual
with the revolute coupling are described. Six linkages, instantaneously
in a critical configuration, provide examples.
The consequences of these critical configurations are explored
for both the linkages and the coupling networks that
are dual with them.
