Unit- 01 Fundamentals of machine design

T1] Describe various steps involved in the design of a machine element (Give
general design procedure for a machine component). Discuss what working
drawing is.
T2] Distinguish between static and dynamic load giving suitable examples.
T3] What is factor of safety? Why it is used in machine design (why it is
considered while designing the machine element?)? How is it selected?
T4] Discuss the guidelines for the selection of quantitative values of ‘factor of
safety’.
T5] How will you classify engineering material? For each category of
classification, give at least two materials, falling in that category.
T6] How material is selected while designing a machine element?
T7] Summarize material selection procedure adopted for designing a machine
element.
T8] Explain in brief factors govern the selection of material for mechanical
component.
T9] Explain the various factors influencing the selection of material for a
particular application.
T10] Name different theories of failure. Define any three.
T11] Enlist different theories of elastic failure giving area of its application.
T12] Illustrate the use of theory of failure for brittle material.
T13] State the major alloying elements added to steel and their influence on
properties of steel.
T14] What do you understand by following designations of materials?
a. FG350 c. 20Mn2
b. 40C8 d. 40Cr1Mo28
 FG350 indicates a grey cast iron with ultimate tensile strength 350 N/𝑚𝑚2
 40C8 indicates a plain carbon steel with 0.4% carbon and 0.8% manganese
 20Mn2 indicates alloy steel having average 0.2% carbon and average 2%
manganese
