Explain the following types of stresses................

When a section is subjected to two equal and opposite forces acting tangentially across the section such that it tends to shear off across the section. The stress produces is called as transverse shear stress. …………………… From figure Mathematically transverse shear stress is represented as, τ = / Where, F = Tangential force applied A = Area of cross section = ( /4 ) 2 d = Diameter of rivet.

State the different modes of failure of gear teeth and their possible remedies to avoid the failure.

1. Bending failure. 2. Pitting. 3. Scoring. 4. Abrasive wear. 5. Corrosive wear Remedies to avoid failure: 1. Bending failure. In order to avoid such failure, the module and face width of the gear is adjusted so that the beam strength is greater than the dynamic load. 2. Pitting. In order to avoid the pitting, the dynamic load between the gear tooth should be less than the wear strength of the gear tooth. 3. Scoring.

What is stress concentration? Explain any four methods to reduce it.

Stress Concentration: Whenever a machine component changes the shape of its cross-section, the simple stress distribution no longer holds good and the neighborhood of the discontinuity is different. This irregularity in the stress distribution caused by abrupt changes of form is called stress concentration. It occurs for all kinds of stresses in the presence of fillets, notches, holes, keyways, splines, surface roughness or scratches etc.

State any six design considerations while designing the spur gear

1) The power to be transmitted 2) The velocity ration or speed of gear drive. 3) The central distance between the two shafts 4) Input speed of the driving gear. 5) Wear characteristics of the gear tooth for a long satisfactory life. 6) The use of space & material should be economical. 7) Efficiency & speed ratio 8) Cost

Describe the importance of aesthetic considerations in design related to shape, colour and surface finish.

1) The shape should not be like blocks but various forms like sculpture, streamlined, aerodynamic, taper should be used. 2) The component should be symmetrical at lean about one axis. 3)proper shape of a product help to make the product more attractive. 4) The shape of the product should be regular, even & proportionate Regarding Colour: ……….Any 2 pt : 1 M Each 1) The colour and shape of component should be such that in should attract appeal and impress customer. 2) The colour should match with conventions, moods e.g.
