This document discusses mechanical springs and their properties including energy storage capacity and fatigue loading. It provides information on designing a close coiled helical compression spring for a load range of 2250N to 2750N with 6mm of axial deflection and a spring index of 5. Formulas are presented for calculating the energy stored in helical springs, maximum shear stress, and deflection based on applied load. Methods for helical springs subjected to fatigue loading, springs arranged in series and parallel, and finding the natural frequency of springs are also summarized.
