Branch of Science which deals with the study of Internal and External Forces
It deals with the effects of these forces on various structures, machines and fluids
Study of Internal forces developed due to elastic deformation under the action of loads
Stress
Resisting force developed at a point
Design Criterion
Strength - Permissible strength
Rigidity - Permissible deformation
Design
High Strength
Rigidity
Economic
Low Weight
High life

Differences
Difference between Mechanics and MOS
EM - Rigid Bodies
MOS - Deformable bodies
Difference between MOS and Machine Design(MD)
MOS - Static Loading
MD - Dynamic Loading
An Impact is a high force or shock applied over a short time period. (Δt tends to 0)
Examples -
IC Engine, Piston, Connecting Rod
Springs in shock absorber
Spur gears high pitch line velocity
Punching, Forging etc.
Used to determine the Impact Strength of a given material
Ratio of Dynamic Deformation to Static Deformation is defined as Impact Factor
when h--->0, I.F ---->2 which gives rise to Impact Loading
Supports
Rigid Support - Static Bending
Flexible Support - Impact Bending
Slide 15
Fatigue Loads
Failure of Machine Components is caused due to Fatigue Loads
Type of Fatigue Loads
Fluctuating
Only Magnitude changes
Completely Reversed
Only Direction changes
Alternating
Both Magnitude and Direction change
Load is always perpendicular
Span is defined as the distance between supports
A beam is said to be statically determinate when
No. of Reaction forces = No. of Equilibrium Equations
A beam is said to be Statically indeterminate when
No. of Reaction forces > No. of Equilibrium Equations
Cantilever beam is always Statically Determinate
Fixed and Continuous beams are always Statically Indeterminate
In SSB
Span = Length of the beam
Is generally Statically Determinate but can be Statically Indeterminate under Variable Temperature condition
Bending is a process by which metal can be deformed by plastically deforming the material
Sagging and Hogging
Sagging
Bending Moment is positive
Sagging - u
Sagging - Compressive Force
Hogging
Bending Moment is negative
Hogging - n
Hogging - Tensile Force
Equal and Constant Couples
Bending Moment is constant throughout the beam length
Neutral Fibre - Axis where the length is the same before and after bending
Point of Contraflexure
Contra - Opposite. Flexure - Bending
Point where Sagging and Hogging meet
Bending Moment is zero
