1. (a) What are the assumptions made in deriving torsion equation.

(b) A cast Iron pulley transmits 15 kw at 600 rpm. The diameter of the pulley is 1.2 metre and it
has four straight arms of elliptical cross section, in which the major axis is twice the minor axis.
Determine the dimensions of the arms, if the allowable bending stress is 15Mpa. [4+12]
2. (a) Write Soderberg’s equation and state its application to different type of loadings.
(b) Determine the diameter of a circular rod made of ductile material with a fatigue strength.
σe =265Mpa and a tensile yield strength of 350 Mpa. The member is subjected to a varying
axial load from Wmin =-300 kN to Wmax =700 kN and has a stress concentration factor=1.8. Use
factor of safty as 2.0. [6+10]
3. (a) Sketch various types of riveted joints.
(b) A double riveted lap joint with zig-zag riveting is to be designed for 13mm thick plates.
Assume σt = 80MPa, τ = 60 Mpa and σc = 120 MPa. [6+10]
4. (a) Define the following terms with necessary sketch.
i. Major diameter
ii. Minor diameter
iii. Pitch
iv. Lead.
(b) Derive an expression for the maxim load in a bolt. When a bracket with a circular base is bolted
to a wall by means of four bolts. [8+8]
5. (a) How is the slipping of the cotter avoided? Explain by two methods.
(b) Design a knuckle joint to transmit 120 kN, with permissible stresses in tension; shear and com-
pression are 75 Mpa; 60 Mpa and 150 Mpa respectively. [4+12]
6. Design a line shaft transmitting power to two machine tools. The power received by the shaft is 30kW
at 300 rpm. The power absorbed by pulley P1 is 12 kW and the remaining power is absorbed by pulley
P2 . The diameter of pulley P1 is 300mm and its mass is 40Kg. the diameter and mass of pulley P2
are 600mm and 75Kg respectively. Assume the belt tension ratio of 2 for both pulleys and the shaft
material as 30C8 steel with Km = 2 and Kt = 1.5. Draw the B.M and torque diagram’s. Assuming
maximum shear stress theory. [16]
7. Design a cast iron protective type flange coupling to transmit 15kW at 900rpm from an electric motor
to a compressor. The service factor may be assumed as 1.35. The following permissible stresses may
be used :
Shear stress for shaft, bolt and key material=40MPa
Crushing stress for bolt and key=80MPa
Shear stress for cast iron =8MPa
Draw a neat sketch of the coupling. [16]
8. (a) What requirements must be satisfied by a spring?
(b) A weight of 800N is to drop on the center of a planet from a height of 30cm. The planet is
supported on four helical spring. Assuming that deflection allowed for each spring is 6cm, spring
index of 5 and maximum allowable stress equal to 4000kg/cm2 ; determine the diameter of wire,
outside diameter of the coils and the number of active coils. [4+12]
