In a circumferential lap joint (for boiler shell), the pitch and diameter of rivets are 70 mm and 25 mm respectively. Calculate the efficiency of the joint.
The rotational speed at which the additional deflection of the shaft from the axis of rotation becomes infinite, is known as
The diameter of the rivet is 8 mm and the force is 10 kN. The thickness of the plate is 2 mm. Calculate the width of the plate if the permissible tensile stress is 50 N/mm².
If a solid shaft of 40 mm diameter is subjected to both bending moment and torque of 300 kN-mm and 150 kN-mm respectively, then calculate the maximum shear stress induced in it.
An element at the critical section of the component under the stress conditions has two principal stresses: σx = 70 MPa and σy = 70 MPa, with τxy = 0, and the yield strength (Syt) is 100 MPa. Calculate the factor of safety using the distortion energy theory.
Consider a band brake with the following data:
The ratio of tension on the tight side to slack side = 3
The angle of overlap of the band on the drum = 180 degrees
Find the required coefficient of friction between the band and the drum. (take ln(3) = 1.1)
A bearing needs to be identified. It is known that the coding (according to the naming convention) starts with 1 or 6. Which of the following is the correct type of bearing with the given information?
A mild steel rod of 12 mm diameter was tested for tensile strength with a gauge length of 60 mm. The following observations were recorded:
Final length = 80 mm; Final diameter = 7 mm; Yield load = 3.4 kN and Ultimate load = 6.1 kN.
