Screw joints are commonly used for assembly and have advantages of being convenient to assemble/disassemble, reliable, and inexpensive due to standardization. The main types of screw fasteners are bolts, screws, studs, tapping screws, and set screws. Stresses in screw joints include tension, torsional shear, shear across threads, crushing stress, and bending stress. Screw joints are also subjected to stresses from initial tightening and external loads. Design considerations are discussed for bolted joints under eccentric loading parallel or perpendicular to the bolt axis.
Power screws convert rotary motion into linear motion for power transmission. There are three main types of power screw threads: square, Acme, and buttress. Square threads are strongest but hardest to manufacture, while Acme threads are easier to machine but can only handle lower loads. Buttress threads are designed to handle extremely high loads in one direction. The efficiency of power screws depends on whether it is raising or lowering a load. Power screws have various applications where linear motion is needed, such as jack screws, lathe lead screws, presses, and material testing machines.
The following presentation consists of a brief introduction to power screw that we use in our day to day life, its types, analysis of load, efficiency, application and examples with images.

PPT On Spring Design , it is used in Machine Design for Engineering and At various Perpuses.
Compression springs are coil springs that resist a compressive force applied axially. Compression springs or coil springs have a spring constant and may be cylindrical springs, conical springs, tapered , concave or convex in shape. Compression springs are linear and thus have the same rate per inch throughout the entire spring. You can have large compression springs, heavy duty compression springs, conical compression spring, small compression springs, or even micro compression springs. Coil compression springs are wound in a helix usually out of round wire. The changing of compression spring ends, direction of the helix, material, and finish all allow a compression spring to meet a wide variety of special industrial needs. Coil springs can be manufactured to very tight tolerances, this allows the coil spring to precisely fit in a hole or around a shaft. A digital load tester, or coil spring compression tester can be used to accurately measure the specific load points in your metal spring. The possibilities are almost endless because there are so many applications for metal springs.
Compression springs can accomplish many types of applications such as pushing or twisting, thus allowing you to achieve numerous results. Compression springs offer resistance to linear compressing forces (push) and are in fact one of the most efficient energy storage devices available. A ballpoint pen is an excellent example of how small compression springs work. The small spring will compress when the pen is clicked and then the small spring will return to it's original position. Other uses include vibration dampening and high temperature applications.
Compression springs that are engineered for high temperature applications can reach up to 1,100 degrees Fahrenheit.

Couplings are used to connect two rotating shafts and transmit torque from one to the other. There are two main types of couplings: rigid couplings for perfectly aligned shafts, and flexible couplings for shafts with misalignment which absorb shocks and vibrations. Common rigid couplings include sleeve, flange, and split-muff couplings which connect shafts through a sleeve or bolted flanges. Flexible bush pin couplings connect shafts through pins with rubber bushes to absorb shocks and compensate for misalignment.

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

Applications of artificial Intelligence in Mechanical Engineering.pdfAtif Razi
Historically, mechanical engineering has relied heavily on human expertise and empirical methods to solve complex problems. With the introduction of computer-aided design (CAD) and finite element analysis (FEA), the field took its first steps towards digitization. These tools allowed engineers to simulate and analyze mechanical systems with greater accuracy and efficiency. However, the sheer volume of data generated by modern engineering systems and the increasing complexity of these systems have necessitated more advanced analytical tools, paving the way for AI.
AI offers the capability to process vast amounts of data, identify patterns, and make predictions with a level of speed and accuracy unattainable by traditional methods. This has profound implications for mechanical engineering, enabling more efficient design processes, predictive maintenance strategies, and optimized manufacturing operations. AI-driven tools can learn from historical data, adapt to new information, and continuously improve their performance, making them invaluable in tackling the multifaceted challenges of modern mechanical engineering.
An improved modulation technique suitable for a three level flying capacitor ...IJECEIAES
This research paper introduces an innovative modulation technique for controlling a 3-level flying capacitor multilevel inverter (FCMLI), aiming to streamline the modulation process in contrast to conventional methods. The proposed
simplified modulation technique paves the way for more straightforward and
efficient control of multilevel inverters, enabling their widespread adoption and
integration into modern power electronic systems. Through the amalgamation of
sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) with a high-frequency square wave
pulse, this controlling technique attains energy equilibrium across the coupling
capacitor. The modulation scheme incorporates a simplified switching pattern
and a decreased count of voltage references, thereby simplifying the control
algorithm.

4. Power Screw
•A power screw is a mechanical device used for
converting rotary motion into linear motion and
transmitting power.
•A power screw is also called a translation screw. It uses
helical translatory motion of the screw thread in
transmitting power rather than clamping the machine
components.
5. Power Screw
•There are three essential parts of the power screw, viz., screw,
nut and a part to hold either the screw or the nut in its place.
•Depending upon the holding arrangement, power screws
operate in two different ways.
•In some cases, the screw rotates in its bearing, while the nut
has axial motion. The lead screw of the lathe is an example of
this category.
•In other applications, the nut is kept stationary and the screw
moves in an axial direction. A screw jack and machine vice are
the examples of this category.
6. The main applications of power screws are as follows:
(i) To raise the load, e.g., screw-jack;
(ii) To obtain accurate motion in machining operations, e.g., lead-screw of lathe;
7. The main applications of power screws are as follows:
(iii) To clamp a work piece, e.g., a vice;
(iv) To load a specimen, e.g., universal testing machine.
8. Advantages of Power Screw
• A power screw has large load carrying capacity.
• The overall dimensions of the power screw are small, resulting in
compact construction.
• A power screw is simple to design.
• The manufacturing of a power screw is easy without requiring
specialised machinery. Square threads are turned on the lathe.
Trapezoidal threads are manufactured on a thread milling machine.
• A power screw provides large mechanical advantage. A load of 15 kN
can be raised by applying an effort as small as 400 N. Therefore, most
of the power screws used in various applications like screw-jacks,
clamps, valves and vices are manually operated.
9. Advantages of Power Screw
•A power screw provides precisely controlled and highly
accurate linear motion required in machine tool
applications.
•A power screw gives smooth and noiseless service without
any maintenance.
•There are few parts in a power screw. This reduces cost and
increases reliability.
•A power screw can be designed with self locking property. In
screw-jack application, self-locking characteristic is required
to prevent the load from descending on its own.
10. Disadvantages of Power Screw
•A power screw has very poor efficiency, as low as 40%.
Therefore, it is not used in continuous power transmission in
machine tools, with the exception of the lead screw.
•High friction in threads causes rapid wear of the screw or
the nut. Therefore, wear is a serious problem in power
screws.
11. Terminology of Power Screw
•Nominal diameter(d)
•Core diameter(dc)
•Mean diameter(dm)
•Pitch (p)
•Lead (l)
•Lead angle(ƛ)
•Hand of threads
12. Nominal diameter(d)
•It is the largest diameter of an
external or internal thread.
•The screw is specified by this
diameter.
14. Pitch (p)
•It is the distance from any point on
the thread to the corresponding
point on the adjacent thread
measured parallel to the axis.
15. Lead (l)
“It is the distance which a screw
advances axially in one rotation of
the nut”. OR “distance between two
corresponding points on the same
helix.
Lead=number of starts*pitch
L=N*p
For single start screw pitch is equal
to lead……so on.
16. Lead angle(ƛ)
“It is an angle made by a helix or
thread with plane perpendicular to
an axis of screw.”
17. Hand of threads
When the axis of screw is vertical if the thread slope
upward from left to right, it is Right Hand Threads.
Right Hand Threads. Left Hand Threads.
19. 1.Square Threads
• Advantages
1. Square threads have maximum efficiency of all thread forms.
2. They exert minimum radial pressure on nut.
3. They can transmit power in either direction.
• Disadvantages
1. Strength of the square threads is lowest of all the thread forms.
2. Theses threads cannot be used conveniently with split nut because:
engagement and disengagement is difficult
• Applications:
Used in Screw jacks, presses & clamping devices
20. 2.ACME/Trapezoidal Threads
• Advantages
1. Acme threads permit the use of split nut which can compensate the wear.
2. Acme threads are stronger than the square threads in shear because of the
larger cross-section at the root.
3. Acme threads can transmit power in either direction.
• Disadvantages
1. Because of slope given to the sides the efficiency of acme threads is lower
than that of square threads.
2. Slope on the sides introduces some bursting pressure on the nut.
• Applications:
Used for lead screws of machine tools, bench
vices
21. 3. Buttress Threads
• Advantages
1. Buttress threads are stronger in shear than any other power threads
because of the largest cross section at the root.
2. Buttress threads combine the high efficiency of square threads and high
strength of V- threads.
• Disadvantages
1. Buttress threads are used to transmit power in only one direction.
2. Theses threads are difficult to manufacture.
• Applications:
Used in screw jacks & vices where force is to be
applied in only one direction.

Torque required to lower the load against thread friction is given by
In this equation if the torque required to lower the load Tt will be

torque causing the screw to rotate. Such screw is known as over hauling
screw.
For over hauling screw, friction angle is less than or equal to lead angle

• In a power screw, if the sliding friction at the threads is replaced by
rolling friction efficiency of screw can be improved substantially.

• Typical recirculating ball screw shown in fig consist of three
components i.e. Screw, nut and steel balls
• A screw and a nut have a semi-circular thread profile. the contact
between the screw and nut threads is through the steel balls.
• As the nut or screw rotates, rolling balls move along the circular
grooved helical path.
241. Advantages of Recirculating Ball screw
• In recirculating ball screw, as the sliding friction is replaced by
rolling friction, efficiency is very high.
• As the nut or screw is preloaded in one direction to reduce the
backlash, high positional accuracy is obtained.
• Because of low coefficient of friction, conversion of rotary to linear
motion can be reversible.
• As the nut or screw rotates, rolling balls move along the circular
grooved helical path.

• Ball screws are used in aircraft and missiles to move control
surfaces, especially for electric fly by wire.
• Used in automobile power steering to translate rotary motion from
an electric motor to axial motion of the steering rack.
