QUESTIONS (CLASS 1)
1. A bar of circular cross-section is subjected to alternating tensile forces varying from a
minimum of 200 kN to a maximum of 500 kN. It is to be manufactured of a material with an
ultimate tensile strength of 900 MPa and an endurance limit of 700 MPa. Determine the
diameter of bar using safety factors of 3.5 related to ultimate tensile strength and 4 related to
endurance limit and a stress concentration factor of 1.65 for fatigue load. Use Goodman straight
line as basis for design.
2. Determine the thickness of a 120 mm wide uniform plate for safe continuous operation if the
plate is to be subjected to a tensile load that has a maximum value of 250 kN and a minimum
value of 100 kN. The properties of the plate material are as follows: Endurance limit stress =
225 MPa, and Yield point stress = 300 MPa. The factor of safety based on yield point may be
taken as 1.5.
[Link] the diameter of a circular rod made of ductile material with a fatigue strength
(complete stress reversal), σe = 265 MPa and a tensile yield strength of 350 MPa. The member
is subjected to a varying axial load from Wmin = – 300 × 103 N to Wmax = 700 × 103 N and
has a stress concentration factor = 1.8. Use factor of safety as 2.0.
4. A 50 mm diameter shaft is made from carbon steel having ultimate tensile strength of 630
MPa. It is subjected to a torque which fluctuates between 2000 N-m to – 800 N-m. Using
Soderberg method, calculate the factor of safety. Assume suitable values for any other data
needed.
5. simply supported shaft between bearings carries a steady load of 10 kN at the centre. The
length of shaft between bearings is 450 mm. Neglecting the effect of stress concentration, find
the minimum diameter of shaft. Given that Endurance limit = 600 MPa; and factor of safety =
1.6.
6. A leaf spring in an automobile is subjected to cyclic stresses. The average stress = 150
MPa; variable stress = 500 MPa; ultimate stress = 630 MPa; yield point stress = 350 MPa and
endurance limit = 150MPa. Estimate, under what factor of safety the spring is working, by
Goodman and Soderberg formulae
7. Determine the diameter of a tensile member of a circular cross-section. The following data
is given: Maximum tensile load = 10 kN; Maximum compressive load = 5 kN; Ultimate
tensile strength = 600MPa; Yield point = 380 MPa; Endurance limit = 290 MPa; Factor of
safety = 4; Stress concentration factor = 2.2
8. A steel connecting rod is subjected to a completely reversed axial load of 160 kN. Suggest
the suitable diameter of the rod using a factor of safety 2. The ultimate tensile strength of the
material is 1100MPa, and yield strength 930 MPa. Neglect column action and the effect of
stress concentration.
