1.

Describe the following theories of elastic failure:


a. Maximum principal stress theory
b. Maximum shear stress theory
c. Distortion energy theory
Then discuss the selection and use of these theories.

2. Describe the following:


o Low cycle fatigue and high cycle fatigue
o S-N diagrams
o Endurance limit
o cumulative fatigue damage
o surface fatigue strength

3. Show that the efficiency of a self-locking square threaded power screw is less than
½ or 50%.

4. Derive the expressions for lifting and lowering of load for a power screw with
trapezoidal threads and thus show that the efficiency of trapezoidal threads is given
