Design of machine members–I Training

UNIT – I

INTRODUCTION: General considerations in the design of Engineering Materials and their properties –selection –Manufacturing consideration in design, tolerances and fits –BIS codes of steels.

STRESSES IN MACHINE MEMBERS: Simple stresses – combined stresses – torsional and bending stresses –impact stresses – stress strain relation – various theories of failure – factor of safety – design for strength and rigidity – preferred numbers. the concept of stiffness in tension, bending, torsion and combined situations – static strength design based on fracture toughness.

UNIT – II

STRENGTH OF MACHINE ELEMENTS: Stress concentration – theoretical stress concentration factor –fatigue stress concentration factor notch sensitivity – design for fluctuating stresses – endurance limit –estimation of endurance strength – Goodman’s line – Soderberg’s line – modified Goodman’s line.

UNIT – III

Riveted and welded joints – design of joints with initial stresses eccentric loading. Bolted joints – design of bolts with pre-stresses – design of joints under eccentric loading – locking devices – both of uniform strength, different seals.

UNIT – IV

KEYS, COTTERS AND KNUCKLE JOINTS: Design of keys-stresses in keys-cotter joints-spigot and socket, sleeve and cotter, jib and cotter joints- knuckle joints.

SHAFTS: Design of solid and hollow shafts for strength and rigidity – design of shafts for combined bending and axial loads – shaft sizes – BIS code. Use of internal and external circlips, gaskets and seals (stationary & rotary).

UNIT – V

SHAFT COUPLING: Rigid couplings – muff, split muff and flange couplings, flexible couplings – flange coupling (modified).

UNIT – VI

MECHANICAL SPRINGS:Stresses and deflections of helical springs – extension -compression springs – springs for fatigue loading, energy storage capacity – helical torsion springs – co-axial springs, leaf springs.
