ME 309 Machine design 1

1. A steel connecting rod made of AISI 8650 steel, on quenched at 1500°F and tempered at 1000°F, is to
be subjected to a reversed axial load of 40,000lbs. Determine the required diameter of the rod, using a
factor of safety N = 2.

The properties of this material are:

Su = 155,000 psi
Sy = 132,000 psi
Sn = Sn’ABC

Where:
A - 0.7 for reversed axial loading
- Correction factor for type of loading other than reversed bending
B - 0.85 for parts ranging in size from ½ in to 2 in
- A size correction factor since a standard test specimen has a nominal diameter of 0.3
in.
C - a surface correction factor since the test specimen was polished
- 0.8

Given: Req’d:
F = 40,000 lbs d
Sy = 132,000 psi
Su = 155,000 psi
N=2
Kf = 1
Sol’n:

For reversed loading Sm = 0 ; Sv = F/A ; A = πd2/4

Sa = (40,000)4/πd2

Sa = 160,000/πd2 psi

Se = CF CS CL CR CT Sn* ; Sn* = rotating beam endurance time

Sn* = Sv/2

Sn* = 155,000/2

Sn* = 77,500 psi

Surface factor CF= a (Su)b ; asuuming has rolled surface

a = 14.4 ; b = -0.718

CF = 14.4 (Su)-0.718

CF = 0.39

Size factor Cs = 0.85

Load factor CL = 0.85 for reversed axial loading

Reliability & Tempt factor CR = CT = 1

S = 0.39 (0.85)(0.85)(77,500)

S = 21837.56 psi

Hence;

1/2 = 0 + 160,000/πd2 (1/21837.56)

d = 2.1597 in

*shift solve for T*

T= 25,132 lb. in.

D/d= 4 in. / 2 in. = 2 in.

K= 1.8

Therefore:
Rmin.=0.13(2)
=0.26 in.
3. The link shown, made of AISI C1045 steel, as rolled, is subjected to a tensile load of 8000 lb.
Let h =1.5b . If the load is repeated but not reversed, determine the dimensions of the section
with the design based on (a) ultimate strength, (b) yield strength. (c) If this link, which is 15 in.
long., must not elongate more than 0.005 in., what should be the dimensions of the cross
section?

Sol’n;

For AISI C1045 steel, as rolled @ Table AT7

Sa = 96 KSI where; F = 8000 lb

Sg = 59 KSI A = bh ; h = 1.5b

E = 30 x 106 psi A = 1.5b2

a) N = factor of safety = 6 c) Elongation = 𝞂 = FL/AE

Sd = Sa/N = F/A where;

96,000/6 = 8000/1.5b2 𝞂 = 0.005 in

b = 0.577 in F = 8000 lb

h = 1.5b = 15/16 in E = 30 x 106 psi

b) Based on yield strength; A = 1.5b2

N = factor of safety = 3 0.005 = (8000)(15)/(1.5b2)(30 x 106)

Sd = Sa/N = F/A

59,000/3 = 8000/1.5b2 b = 0.730 in

h = 1.5b = 0.125
b = 0.521 in

h = 1.5b = 27/32 in
 4. A lever keyed to a shaft is L =15in long and has a rectangular cross section of h = 3t . A
2000-lb load is gradually applied and reversed at the end as shown; the material is AISI C1020,
as rolled. Design for both ultimate and yield strengths. (a) What should be the dimensions of a
section at a =13in ? (b) at b = 4 in ? (c) What should be the size where the load is applied?

Sol’n;

For AISI C1020, as rolled

Su = 65 KSI

Sy =49 KSI

Design factors for gradually applied

and reversed load.

Na = 8

Ny= 4

I = th2/12, moment of inertia

But n = 3t

I = h4/36

Based on ultimate strenght;

S = Sa/Sn

a) S = Mc/1 = Fac/1 b)
C = h/2 S = Mc/1 = Fbc/1
F = 2000 lbs = 2 kips C = h/2
F = 2000 lbs = 2 kips

h = 3.86 in

t = h/3 = 3.86/3 = 1.29 in h = 2.61 in

h = 2 in t = h/3 = 2.61/3 = 0.87 in

t = 0.5 in h = 3 in

t = 1 in
c)
3-h/4
3-4.5/13-4
h = 2.33 in
1-t/4
1.5-1/13-4
t = 0.78
h = 2.625 in
5. A punch press is designed to exert a force sufficient to shear a 15/16-in. hole in a ½-
in. steel plate, AISI C1020, as rolled. This force is exerted on the shaft at a radius of ¾-
in. (a) Compute the torsional stress in the 3.5-in. shaft (bending neglected). (b) What will
be the corresponding design factor if the shaft is made of cold-rolled AISI 1035 steel
(Table AT 10)? Considering the shock loading that is characteristics of this machine, do
you thick the design is safe enough?

Sol’n;
For AISI C1020, as rolled
Sa = 49 KSI
F = Sa(π dt)
Where; d = 15/16 in
t = 1/2 in
F = 49 (π)(15/16)(1/2)
F = 72.2 kips
T =Fr
Where; r = 3/4 in
T = (72.2)(3/4)
T = 54.2 in-kips
a)
S =16t/πd3
Where; d = 3.5 in
S = 16(54.2)/ π(3.5)3
S = 6.44 ksi

b) For AISI 1035 Steel, Sw = 64 ksi for shock bading, traditional factor of safety, N =
10≈15
Design factor, N = Sw/S
= 64/6.44

N = 9.44 (The design is

safe) (N≈10)
