7. Types of Stresses
 Tensile Stress
When a body is subjected to two equal and opposite axial pulls P
(also called tensile load) as shown in Fig., then the stress
induced at any section of the body is known as tensile stress
as shown in Fig.
Tensile stress, σt =P/A
Tensile strain,εt = δl/ l

8. Compressive Stress
When a body is subjected to two equal and opposite
axial pushes P (also called compressive load) as shown
in Fig, then the stress induced at any section of the
body is known as compressive stress as shown in Fig.
Compressive stress, σc = P/A
compressive strain, εc = δl /l

9. Shear Stress
 When a body is subjected to two equal and opposite forces
acting tangentially across the resisting section, as a result of
which the body tends to shear off the section, then the stress
induced is called shear stress
 Single Shear

10. Double shear.
 The area resisting the shear off the rivet,

11. Crushing Stress
 A localised compressive stress at the surface of contact
between two members of a machine part, that are
relatively at rest is known as crushing stress

12. Bearing Stress
 A localised compressive stress at the surface of contact between
two members of a machine part, that has relative motion is
known as bearing stress

13. Torsional Shear Stress
 When a machine member is subjected to the action of two equal and opposite
couples acting in parallel planes (or torque or twisting moment), then the
machine member is said to be subjected to torsion. The stress set up by torsion
is known as torsional shear stress.
 Torsion equation:

14. Bending Stress
 In engineering practice, the machine parts of structural members may
be subjected to static or dynamic loads which cause bending stress in
the sections besides other types of stresses such as tensile, compressive
and shearing stresses.
 The bending equation is given by

17. Principal Stresses and Principal Planes
 Planes which have no shear stress are known as principal planes and
the direct stresses along these planes are known as principal
stresses. The planes on which the maximum shear stress act are
known as planes of maximum shear.
 When a member is subjected to bi-axial stress (i.e. direct stress in two
mutually perpendicular planes accompanied by a simple shear stress),
then the normal and shear stresses are obtained as discussed below:

18.  When a member is subjected to direct stress in one
plane accompanied by a simple shear stress as shown
 in Fig, then the principal stresses are obtained by
substituting σ2 = 0 in above equations.

19.  Creep: When a part is subjected to a constant stress at high temperature for a long
period of time, it will undergo a slow and permanent deformation called creep. This
property is considered in designing internal combustion engines, boilers and
turbines.
 Creep Strength: It is defined as the maximum strength that the material can
withstand for a specified length of time without excessive deformation.
 Creep Ruptuure strength of the material is the maximum strength that the
material can withstand for a specified length of time.
Creep Curve

20. Fatigue: When a material is subjected to repeated stresses, it
fails at stresses below the yield point stresses. Such type of
failure of a material is known as *fatigue. The failure is caused
by means of a progressive crack formation which are usually
fine and of microscopic size. This property is considered in
designing shafts, connecting rods, springs, gears, etc

21. ENDURANCE LIMIT
 It may be defined as the safe maximum stress which can be
applied to the machine part working under actual condition.
 It is defined as maximum value of completely reversed bending
stress which a polished specimen can withstand without failure
for infinite number of cycles.
FACTORS AFFECTING ENDURANCE STRENGTH
 Load factor (KL)
 Surface finish factor(KSF)
 Size factor(KSZ)
 Reliability factor(KR)
 Miscellaneous factors(K) ns.
NOTCH SENSITIVITY (q)
This is defined as the degree to which the actual stress concentration effect
compares with theoretical stress concentration effect.

22. Factor of safety
 It is defined, in general, as the ratio of the maximum stress to
the working stress Mathematically,
brittle materials e.g. cast iron, the fos for brittle materials is
based on ultimate stress
ductile materials e.g. mild steel, the fos is based upon the yield
point stress to the working stress.

23. Selection of Factor of Safety
 Before selecting a proper factor of safety, a design
engineer should consider the following points :
1. The reliability of the properties of the material and change of these
properties during service ;
2. The reliability of test results and accuracy of application of these
results to actual machine parts ;
3. The reliability of applied load ;
4. The certainty as to exact mode of failure ;
5. The extent of simplifying assumptions ;
6. The extent of localised stresses ;
7. The extent of initial stresses set up during manufacture ;
8. The extent of loss of life if failure occurs ; and
9. The extent of loss of property if failure occurs.

24. Stress Concentration
 Whenever a machine component changes the shape of its
cross-section, the simple stress distribution no longer
holds good and the neighbourhood of the discontinuity is
different. This irregularity in the stress distribution caused
by abrupt changes of form is called stress concentration.
 It occurs for all kinds of stresses in the presence of fillets,
notches, holes, keyways, splines, surface roughness or
scratches etc.

25. Causes
 Abrupt Change of c/s
 Poor surface finish
 Localized loading
 Variation in the material properties
Methods of Reducing Stress Concentration
•Avoiding sharp corners
•Providing fillets
•Use of multiple holes instead of single hole.
•Undercutting the shoulder part

26. Methods of Reducing Stress Concentration

27. Theoretical or Form Stress Concentration Factor
 The theoretical or form stress concentration factor is
defined as the ratio of the maximum stress in a
member (at a notch or a fillet) to the nominal stress at
the same section based upon net area. Mathematically,
theoretical or form stress concentration factor,
The value of Kt depends upon the material and geometry of the
part.

28. Steels Designated on the Basis of Mechanical
Properties
 These steels are carbon and low alloy steels where the
main criterion in the selection and inspectionof steel
is the tensile strength or yield stress. According to
Indian standard **IS: 1570 (Part–I)- 1978 (Reaffirmed
1993), these steels are designated by a symbol ‘Fe’ or ‘Fe
E’ depending on whether
 the steel has been specified on the basis of minimum
tensile strength or yield strength, followed by the
figure indicating the minimum tensile strength or
yield stress in N/mm2. For example ‘Fe 290’ means a
steel having minimum tensile strength of 290 N/mm2
and ‘Fe E 220’ means a steel having yield strength of
220 N/mm2.

30. Steels Designated on the Basis of Chemical Composition

(b) Letter ‘C’, and
(c) Figure indicating 10 times the average percentage of manganese
content.
 The figure after multiplying shall be rounded off to the nearest integer.
 For example 20C8 means a carbon steel containing 0.15 to 0.25 per cent (0.2 per
cent on an average) carbon and 0.60 to 0.90 per cent (0.75 per cent rounded off
to 0.8 per cent on an average) manganese.

in the following order :
 1. Figure indicating 100 times the average percentage of carbon,
 2. Letter ‘C’,
 3. Figure indicating 10 times the average percentage of
manganese, and
 4. Symbol ‘S’ followed by the figure indicating the 100 times the
average content of sulphur.
 If instead of sulphur, lead (Pb) is added to make the steel free cutting,
then symbol ‘Pb’ may be used

38. Theories of Failure Under Static Load
 1. Maximum principal (or normal) stress theory
(also known as Rankine’s theory).
 2. Maximum shear stress theory (also known as
Guest’s or Tresca’s theory).
 3. Maximum principal (or normal) strain theory
(also known as Saint Venant theory).
 4. Maximum strain energy theory (also known as
Haigh’s theory).
 5. Maximum distortion energy theory (also known
as Hencky and Von Mises theory).

39. Maximum Principal or Normal Stress Theory (Rankine’s Theory)
 According to this theory, the failure or yielding occurs
at a point in a member when the maximum principal
or normal stress in a bi-axial stress system reaches the
limiting strength of the material in simple tension test.
 Since the limiting strength for ductile materials is yield
point stress and for brittle materials(which do not have
well defined yield point) the limiting strength is
ultimate stress, therefore according to the above
theory, taking factor of safety (F.S.) into consideration,
the maximum principal or normal stress (σt1) in a bi-
axial stress system is given by

40. Maximum Shear Stress Theory (Guest’s or Tresca’s Theory)
According to this theory, the failure or yielding occurs at a point in a
member when the maximum
shear stress in a bi-axial stress system reaches a value equal to the shear
stress at yield point in a
simple tension test. Mathematically,
τmax = τyt /F.S. ...(i)
where τmax = Maximum shear stress in a bi-axial stress system,
τyt = Shear stress at yield point as determined from simple tension test,
and F.S. = Factor of safety.
Maximum Distortion Energy Theory (Hencky and Von Mises Theory)
According to this theory, the failure or yielding occurs at a point in a member when
the distortion strain energy (also called shear strain energy) per unit volume in a bi-
axial stress system reaches the limiting distortion energy (i.e. distortion energy at
yield point) per unit volume as determined from a simple tension test.
Mathematically, the maximum distortion energy theory for yielding is expressed as
(σt1)2 + (σt2)2 – 2σt1 × σt2 =
