INTRODUCTION

It may be defined as the iterative decision making activity to create

the plans by which the resources are converted, preferably optimally, into
systems, processes or the devices to perform the desired functions and to
meet the human needs.
The main purpose of the course of the Engineering Design is to help
the student inculcate skill in applying the knowledge he has acquired in the
science, engineering science, Social studies, and humanities courses, to the
solution of practical Engineering problems. The object is not to teach a
Engineering course but to help the students learn how to use purposefully
and effectively what is already known to him.
The subject Machine Design is the creation of new and the better
machines and improving the existing ones. A new or a better machine is
one which is more economical in the overall cost of production and the
operation. The process of design is a long and the time consuming one.
From the study of existing ideas, a new idea has to be conceived. The
idea is then studied keeping in mind its commercial success and given the
shape and form in the form of drawings. In the preparation of these
drawings the care must be taken of the availability of resources and in
money, in men and the material required for the successful completion of
the new idea into an actual reality. In designing a new component, it is
necessary to have a good knowledge of many subjects such as
Mathematics, Engineering Mechanics, Strength of Materials, Theory of
Machines, Work Shop Process, and Engineering Drawing.

simply supported between the bearings 2.5m apart. Determine the
size of the shaft, if he allowable shear stress is 42MPa and the
maximum tensile or compressive stress is not to exceed 56MPa.
What size of the shaft will be required, if it is subjected to
gradually applied loads?

A) What are the commonly used materials for the Mechanical

Engineering Design?
How can the properties of steel can be improved?
B) An known weight falls through 10 mm on a collar rigidly attached
to the lower end
of the vertical bar 3 m long and 600 mm2 in section. If the maximum
instantaneous
extension is known to be 2 mm, what is corresponding stress and
the value of
unknown weight? Take
E = 200kN/mm2
[7+8]

2(a) Explain the salient features of the maximum principal stress theory and
indicate
under what conditions such a theory is useful?
(b) A shaft is designed based on maximum distortion energy theory
with a factor of safety of 2.0. The material used is 30C8 steel with a
yield stress of 310 MPa. It is subjected to an axial load of 40kN.
Determine the maxim torque capacity. Diameter of the shaft is 20
mm.

3. Two plates 16 mm thick are joined by a double riveted lap joint.

The pitch
of each row of rivets is 90 mm. the rivets are 25 mm in diameter.
The
permissible stress are as follows:
at= 100MPa; ;t = 110MPa ; ac 240MPa

4. (a) Write a short note on bolts of uniform strength.
(b) The cylinder head of a steam engine is subjected to a steam pressure of0.7N/mm2. It
is held in position by means of 12 bolts. A soft copper gasket is used to make the joint
leak-proof. The effective diameter of cylinder is 300mm. Find the size of the bolt so that
the stress in the bolts is not to exceed 100 MPa.

5. Design a knuckle joint for a tie rod of a circular section to sustain a
maximum pull of 70kN. The ultimate strength of material of the rod
against tearing is 420MPa. The ultimate tensile and the shearing
strength of the pin material are SlOMPa and 396MPa respectively.
Determine the tie rod section and the pin section.

Take the factor of safety = 6.

6.a) What is meant by the bolt of uniform strength?

b) A reciprocating steam engine connecting rod is subjected to
maximum load of 65kN. Find the diameter of the connecting rod
at its thinnest part if the permissible tensile stress is 35N/mm2.
[5+10]
7. A hallow shaft for a rotary compressor is to be designed to transmit
a maximum torque of 4750N-m. The shear stress in the shaft is
limited to 50MPa. Determine the inside and {he outside diameter of
the shaft, if the ratio of the inside to the outside diameter is 0.4.
[15]
8. Design a closed coiled helical compression spring for a service
load ranging from 2250N to 2750N. the axial deflection of the
spring for the load range is 6 mm. Assume a spring index of 5. The
permissible shear stress intensity is 420MPa. And the modulus of
the rigidity is = 84kN/mm2.
Neglect the effect of concentration. Draw a fully dimensioned
sketch of the spring, showing the details of the finish of the coils.
