Problems given in the following table are intended to explain the usage of the mechanical
engineering calculators which are available in this website.
|
STRESS/STRAIN CALCULATIONS |
|
Thin Walled Pressure Vessel Example
|
An example about the calculation of stresses on a pressure vessel,
evaluation of yield criteria of material and stress transformation to find shear
and perpendicular stresses on welding of the cylindrical body of the pressure
vessel. |
|
Strain Gauge Rosette Calculation Example
|
An example about the calculation of normal and shear strain and principal
stresses on a machine component with the usage of strain results which have been
measured with 45° Rosette. |
|
COMPRESSION MEMBER DESIGN |
|
Column Buckling Calculations for a Soild Round Bar
|
An example about the calculation of allowable load on a compression
member. Sectional properties of the member are also calculated. |
|
I Beam Buckling Calculations
|
An example about the calculation of factor of safety of a compression
member which is loaded eccentrically. Sectional properties of the member are also calculated. |
|
BOLT SIZING |
|
Bolt Sizing For Pressure Vessel Cap
|
An example about the calculation of bolts size which are going to fix pressure vessel cap to the vessel. Engineering unit converter is also used for unit conversion. |
|
MECHANICAL SPRING DESIGN |
|
Compression Spring Design
|
An example on the design of compression spring which works under cyclic loading. |
|
Extension Spring Design
|
An example on the design of extension spring which works under static loading. |
|
CONTACT STRESSES |
|
Contact Stresses in a Steel Ball Bearing
|
An example on calculation of contact stresses in a steel ball bearing. |
|
STRUCTURAL BEAM DEFLECTIONS |
|
Simply Supported Beam Deflection Calculation Example
|
An example on calculation of max. deflection, max. shear force, max. bending moment and mid-span slope/deflection of a simply supported beam
under multiple point loads and a distributed load. |
|
STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF BEAMS AND SHAFTS |
|
Torsion Of Solid Shaft Example
|
An example about the calculation of torsional stress on stepped shaft. After
calculation of torsional stress, principal stresses are calculated and
evaluation of yield criteria of material is done with these stresses. |
|
Timber Beam Design for Strength Example
|
An example about the calculation of normal and shear stresses on a timber beam. |
