A solid circular shaft is subjected to a bending moment 60 kN-m and a torque of 25 kN-m. Design the shaft according to maximum shear stress theory and maximum distortion theory. Adopt the stress at elastic limit as 250 N/mm2, Poisson’s ratio is 0.3 and the factor of safety is 2.
Answer
Given: Bending moment M = 60 kNm = 60 × 106 Nmm, Torque T = 25 kNm = 25 × 106 Nmm, Yield stress σy = 250 N/mm2, Factor of safety FOS = 2, Poisson's ratio μ = 0.3. The allowable stress σallow = σy / FOS = 125 N/mm2.
The bending stress σ and shear stress τ are given by:
1. Maximum Shear Stress Theory (Guest's Theory): The design criterion is τmax = σy / (2 × FOS). The equivalent torque Te = √(M2 + T2) = √(602 + 252) = 65 kNm.
2. Maximum Distortion Energy Theory (Von Mises Theory): The design criterion is σe = σy / FOS, where σe = √(σ2 + 3τ2). Substituting σ and τ:
The shaft diameter required is 128.5 mm based on the maximum shear stress theory and 124.6 mm based on the maximum distortion energy theory.
A closed coil helical spring of round steel wire 10mm in diameter has a mean radius of 120 mm. The spring has 10 complete turns and is subjected to a axial load of 200 N. Determine: i) deflection of the spring ii) Maximum shear stress in the wire iii) stiffness of the spring. G = 80 kN/mm2.
Answer
Given: Wire diameter (d) = 10 mm, Mean radius (R) = 120 mm, Number of turns (n) = 10, Axial load (W) = 200 N, Modulus of rigidity (G) = 80,000 N/mm2.
i) Deflection of the spring (δ):
ii) Maximum shear stress (τ):
iii) Stiffness of the spring (k):
A close coiled helical spring is to carry a load of 950 N. Its mean coil diameter is 10 times that of wire diameter. Calculate the diameter of coil and wire if the shear stress in the material of the spring is 80 kN/mm2.
