Design Procedure 1 Define Problem 1.


Firstly Assume nothing and ask questions questions. Often the real need is not always evident to all. Decide with confidence what is the problem.

MD Week 1, Slide No. 21

Design Procedure 2 Define Constraints 2.


Constraints may include: include:1. Performance (force, power, speed, volumes) 2. Dimensions (size and weight) 2 Di i ( i d i ht) 3. Shape/layout 4. Strength 5. Manufacturing process 6. Environment 7. Safety 8. Costs

MD Week 1, Slide No. 22

Design Procedure 3 Material Selection 3.


Material selection will depend upon: upon:1. Strength and dimensions 2. Production 2 P d ti methods th d 3. Standard size availability 4. Weldability and machinability 5. Corrosion, heat and wear resistance 6. Reliability (e.g. castings and welds may have porosity or inclusions which can lead to premature failure)

MD Week 1, Slide No. 23

Design Procedure 4. Preliminary Designs g y g


Apply creativity Rarely is there only 1 correct solution Some solutions will be better than others, but you will need to develop them to see their potential. Select 3 to 6 preliminary designs and - Make approximate calculations for sizes/selections pp - Create sketches or CAD models - Develop a workable solution for each design - Gain costs of each design - Maybe undertake tests of the design using a proto-type/simulation

MD Week 1, Slide No. 24

Design Procedure 5 Selection 5.


Do not include unworkable designs in the decision making process unworkable process. Use a structured decision making process to choose the best design. e.g. weighted scoring method 5A. Develop criteria for assessment (excluding cost as cost will be the final determinant after the weighting process) For example: Reliability - since it is to be used on remote sites Low maintenance unskilled users Uses standard components easy to get spare parts

MD Week 1, Slide No. 25

Design Procedure 5B Selection 5B.


5B. 5B Develop relative weights for each criteria (from 1 to 10) and provide justification For F example l Reliability has a weight of 10 as it so important the machine will not break down when needed as the whole production line depends upon it. Low maintenance has a weight of 7 as it is expensive to stop the line and undertake maintenance and it can only be done on routine shut downs. downs Uses standard components has a weight of 6 as it is easier to get a local part than get a special replacement part part.

MD Week 1, Slide No. 39

Actual Maximum Stress


Stress is a state property at a specific point Normal stress () Shear stress () Only by knowing the actual forces acting on the component will the stress be known known. Loads may be maximum on stopping, starting y g g or jamming. A shock f t (Ksh) i applied t th static l d h k factor is li d to the t ti load.

Component Strength
Strength is a material property property. Yield Strength ( y) g (S Ultimate tensile strength (Sut) Shear Strength (Ss) Strength may vary from point to point within a component of the same material due to work hardening, g, heat treatment, surface finish, inclusions etc.

MD Week 1, Slide No. 42

Design Margin
In order to have a safe design the Component Strength must be greater than the Actual Maximum Stress Stress. In many cases there is a great deal of uncertainty on both the values for the strength and the stress and these are accounted for using a Design Factor or Factor of Safety

MD Week 1, Slide No. 43

Design Factor N Factor,


Accounts for uncertainties concerning stress and strength: Composition of materials Variations in properties within a bar of stock Effect of local processing on properties Effect of nearby welds, shrink fits Effect of heat treatment Intensity and distribution of loading Validity of loading model to represent reality Intensity of stress concentration Influence of time on strength and geometry Effect of corrosion Effect of wear Uncertainty of other factors

MD Week 1, Slide No. 44

Design Factor N for aircraft Factor,


Design Factors (Uncertainty) must be managed by engineers For example aircraft use Materials with high certainty of properties (certified) Known loads from study and measurement Testing to verify all assumptions High quality control Routine testing to detect signs of failure Hence they can use small design factors of 1.05 to 1.15 ( (otherwise the plane will be too heavy to fly) p y y)

MD Week 1, Slide No. 45

Design Factor N - selection guide Factor,


The uncertainties can be broken down into:Material reliability (Nm) Workshop Accuracy (Nw) Design load accuracy (Na) Consequence of Failure (Ncf) The design factor N = Nm x Nw x Na x Ncf If N > 6 you should re-evaluate and manage the re evaluate uncertainties.

Balanced Design (steps 1-7) 1 7)


1. 1 Select material (find value for Sy) ). 2. Calculate the Design Factor for each component N = Nm x Nw x Na x Ncf 3. Determine the allowable stress for each component = Sy/N (for normal stresses) = 0.6Sy/N (for shear stresses) 4. Trace the force through the assembly, splitting the force where there is more than one path (e.g. if the load is carried by 5 rivets, force per rivet = Force/5). f i t F /5) 5. Explode the assembly and show forces acting on each part. 6. 6 Determine the stress associates with each failure mode (tension (tension, compression/bearing, shear, bending, torsion). 7. Write the equation for each mode of failure as follows Allowable stress Actual Stress Sy/N or 0.6Sy/N F/A or Mc/I or Tr/J
