Budynas−Nisbett: Shigley’s Mechanical Engineering Design, Eighth Edition I. Basics 1. Introduction to Mechanical Engineering Design 10 © The McGraw−Hill Companies, 2008 4 Mechanical Engineering Design Mechanical design is a complex undertaking, requiring many skills. Extensive relation￾ships need to be subdivided into a series of simple tasks. The complexity of the subject requires a sequence in which ideas are introduced and iterated. We first address the nature of design in general, and then mechanical engineering design in particular. Design is an iterative process with many interactive phases. Many resources exist to support the designer, including many sources of information and an abundance of computational design tools. The design engineer needs not only to develop competence in their field but must also cultivate a strong sense of responsibility and professional work ethic. There are roles to be played by codes and standards, ever-present economics, safety, and considerations of product liability. The survival of a mechanical component is often related through stress and strength. Matters of uncertainty are ever-present in engineer￾ing design and are typically addressed by the design factor and factor of safety, either in the form of a deterministic (absolute) or statistical sense. The latter, statistical approach, deals with a design’s reliability and requires good statistical data. In mechanical design, other considerations include dimensions and tolerances, units, and calculations. The book consists of four parts. Part 1, Basics, begins by explaining some differ￾ences between design and analysis and introducing some fundamental notions and approaches to design. It continues with three chapters reviewing material properties, stress analysis, and stiffness and deflection analysis, which are the key principles nec￾essary for the remainder of the book. Part 2, Failure Prevention, consists of two chapters on the prevention of failure of mechanical parts. Why machine parts fail and how they can be designed to prevent fail￾ure are difficult questions, and so we take two chapters to answer them, one on pre￾venting failure due to static loads, and the other on preventing fatigue failure due to time-varying, cyclic loads. In Part 3, Design of Mechanical Elements, the material of Parts 1 and 2 is applied to the analysis, selection, and design of specific mechanical elements such as shafts, fasteners, weldments, springs, rolling contact bearings, film bearings, gears, belts, chains, and wire ropes. Part 4, Analysis Tools, provides introductions to two important methods used in mechanical design, finite element analysis and statistical analysis. This is optional study material, but some sections and examples in Parts 1 to 3 demonstrate the use of these tools. There are two appendixes at the end of the book. Appendix A contains many use￾ful tables referenced throughout the book. Appendix B contains answers to selected end-of-chapter problems. 1–1 Design To design is either to formulate a plan for the satisfaction of a specified need or to solve a problem. If the plan results in the creation of something having a physical reality, then the product must be functional, safe, reliable, competitive, usable, manufacturable, and marketable. Design is an innovative and highly iterative process. It is also a decision-making process. Decisions sometimes have to be made with too little information, occasion￾ally with just the right amount of information, or with an excess of partially contradictory information. Decisions are sometimes made tentatively, with the right reserved to adjust as more becomes known. The point is that the engineering designer has to be personally comfortable with a decision-making, problem-solving role

Budynas-Nisbett:Shigley's I.Basics 1.Introduction to T©The McGraw-Hill Mechanical Engineering Mechanical Engineering Companies,2008 Design,Eighth Edition Design Introduction to Mechanical Engineering Design Design is a communication-intensive activity in which both words and pictures are used,and written and oral forms are employed.Engineers have to communicate effec- tively and work with people of many disciplines.These are important skills,and an engineer's success depends on them. A designer's personal resources of creativeness,communicative ability,and problem- solving skill are intertwined with knowledge of technology and first principles. Engineering tools (such as mathematics,statistics,computers,graphics,and languages) are combined to produce a plan that,when carried out,produces a product that is fumnc- tional,safe,reliable,competitive,usable,manufacturable,and marketable,regardless of who builds it or who uses it. 1-2 Mechanical Engineering Design Mechanical engineers are associated with the production and processing of energy and with providing the means of production,the tools of transportation,and the techniques of automation.The skill and knowledge base are extensive.Among the disciplinary bases are mechanics of solids and fluids,mass and momentum transport,manufactur- ing processes,and electrical and information theory.Mechanical engineering design involves all the disciplines of mechanical engineering. Real problems resist compartmentalization.A simple journal bearing involves fluid flow,heat transfer,friction,energy transport,material selection,thermomechanical treatments,statistical descriptions,and so on.A building is environmentally controlled. The heating,ventilation,and air-conditioning considerations are sufficiently specialized that some speak of heating,ventilating,and air-conditioning design as if it is separate and distinct from mechanical engineering design.Similarly,internal-combustion engine design,turbomachinery design,and jet-engine design are sometimes considered dis- crete entities.Here,the leading string of words preceding the word design is merely a product descriptor.Similarly,there are phrases such as machine design,machine-element design,machine-component design,systems design,and fluid-power design.All of these phrases are somewhat more focused examples of mechanical engineering design. They all draw on the same bodies of knowledge,are similarly organized,and require similar skills. 1-3 Phases and Interactions of the Design Process What is the design process?How does it begin?Does the engineer simply sit down at a desk with a blank sheet of paper and jot down some ideas?What happens next?What factors influence or control the decisions that have to be made?Finally,how does the design process end? The complete design process,from start to finish,is often outlined as in Fig.1-1. The process begins with an identification of a need and a decision to do something about it.After many iterations,the process ends with the presentation of the plans for satisfying the need.Depending on the nature of the design task,several design phases may be repeated throughout the life of the product,from inception to termi- nation.In the next several subsections,we shall examine these steps in the design process in detail. Identification of need generally starts the design process.Recognition of the need and phrasing the need often constitute a highly creative act,because the need may be only a vague discontent,a feeling of uneasiness,or a sensing that something is not right. The need is often not evident at all;recognition is usually triggered by a particular

Introduction to Mechanical Engineering Design © The McGraw−Hill 11 Companies, 2008 Introduction to Mechanical Engineering Design 5 Design is a communication-intensive activity in which both words and pictures are used, and written and oral forms are employed. Engineers have to communicate effec￾tively and work with people of many disciplines. These are important skills, and an engineer’s success depends on them. A designer’s personal resources of creativeness, communicative ability, and problem￾solving skill are intertwined with knowledge of technology and first principles. Engineering tools (such as mathematics, statistics, computers, graphics, and languages) are combined to produce a plan that, when carried out, produces a product that is func￾tional, safe, reliable, competitive, usable, manufacturable, and marketable, regardless of who builds it or who uses it. 1–2 Mechanical Engineering Design Mechanical engineers are associated with the production and processing of energy and with providing the means of production, the tools of transportation, and the techniques of automation. The skill and knowledge base are extensive. Among the disciplinary bases are mechanics of solids and fluids, mass and momentum transport, manufactur￾ing processes, and electrical and information theory. Mechanical engineering design involves all the disciplines of mechanical engineering. Real problems resist compartmentalization. A simple journal bearing involves fluid flow, heat transfer, friction, energy transport, material selection, thermomechanical treatments, statistical descriptions, and so on. A building is environmentally controlled. The heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning considerations are sufficiently specialized that some speak of heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning design as if it is separate and distinct from mechanical engineering design. Similarly, internal-combustion engine design, turbomachinery design, and jet-engine design are sometimes considered dis￾crete entities. Here, the leading string of words preceding the word design is merely a product descriptor. Similarly, there are phrases such as machine design, machine-element design, machine-component design, systems design, and fluid-power design. All of these phrases are somewhat more focused examples of mechanical engineering design. They all draw on the same bodies of knowledge, are similarly organized, and require similar skills. 1–3 Phases and Interactions of the Design Process What is the design process? How does it begin? Does the engineer simply sit down at a desk with a blank sheet of paper and jot down some ideas? What happens next? What factors influence or control the decisions that have to be made? Finally, how does the design process end? The complete design process, from start to finish, is often outlined as in Fig. 1–1. The process begins with an identification of a need and a decision to do something about it. After many iterations, the process ends with the presentation of the plans for satisfying the need. Depending on the nature of the design task, several design phases may be repeated throughout the life of the product, from inception to termi￾nation. In the next several subsections, we shall examine these steps in the design process in detail. Identification of need generally starts the design process. Recognition of the need and phrasing the need often constitute a highly creative act, because the need may be only a vague discontent, a feeling of uneasiness, or a sensing that something is not right.

For example,the need to do something about a food-packaging machine may be indi- cated by the noise level,by a variation in package weight,and by slight but perceptible variations in the quality of the packaging or wrap. There is a distinct difference between the statement of the need and the definition of the problem.The definition of problem is more specific and must include all the spec- ifications for the object that is to be designed.The specifications are the input and out- put quantities,the characteristics and dimensions of the space the object must occupy, and all the limitations on these quantities.We can regard the object to be designed as something in a black box.In this case we must specify the inputs and outputs of the box, together with their characteristics and limitations.The specifications define the cost,the number to be manufactured,the expected life,the range,the operating temperature,and the reliability.Specified characteristics can include the speeds,feeds,temperature lim- itations,maximum range,expected variations in the variables,dimensional and weight limitations,etc There are many implied specifications that result either from the designer's par- ticular environment or from the nature of the problem itself.The manufacturing processes that are available,together with the facilities of a certain plant,constitute restrictions on a designer's freedom,and hence are a part of the implied specifica- tions.It may be that a small plant,for instance,does not own cold-working machin- ery.Knowing this,the designer might select other metal-processing methods that can be performed in the plant.The labor skills available and the competitive situa- tion also constitute implied constraints.Anything that limits the designer's freedom of choice is a constraint.Many materials and sizes are listed in supplier's catalogs, for instance,but these are not all easily available and shortages frequently occur. Furthermore,inventory economics requires that a manufacturer stock a minimum number of materials and sizes.An example of a specification is given in Sec.1-16. This example is for a case study of a power transmission that is presented throughout this text. The synthesis of a scheme connecting possible system elements is sometimes called the invention of the concept or concept design.This is the first and most impor- tant step in the synthesis task.Various schemes must be proposed,investigated,and

Figure 1-1 shows that synthesis and analysis and optimization are intimately and iteratively related. We have noted,and we emphasize,that design is an iterative process in which we proceed through several steps,evaluate the results,and then return to an earlier phase of the procedure.Thus,we may synthesize several components of a system,analyze and optimize them,and return to synthesis to see what effect this has on the remaining parts of the system.For example,the design of a system to transmit power requires attention to the design and selection of individual components (e.g.,gears,bearings,shaft) However,as is often the case in design,these components are not independent.In order to design the shaft for stress and deflection,it is necessary to know the applied forces. If the forces are transmitted through gears,it is necessary to know the gear specifica- tions in order to determine the forces that will be transmitted to the shaft.But stock gears come with certain bore sizes,requiring knowledge of the necessary shaft diame- ter.Clearly,rough estimates will need to be made in order to proceed through the process,refining and iterating until a final design is obtained that is satisfactory for each individual component as well as for the overall design specifications.Throughout the text we will elaborate on this process for the case study of a power transmission design. Both analysis and optimization require that we construct or devise abstract models of the system that will admit some form of mathematical analysis.We call these mod- els mathematical models.In creating them it is our hope that we can find one that will simulate the real physical system very well.As indicated in Fig.1-1,evaluation is a significant phase of the total design process.Evaluation is the final proof of a success- ful design and usually involves the testing of a prototype in the laboratory.Here we wish to discover if the design really satisfies the needs.Is it reliable?Will it compete successfully with similar products?Is it economical to manufacture and to use?Is it easily maintained and adjusted?Can a profit be made from its sale or use?How likely is it to result in product-liability lawsuits?And is insurance easily and cheaply obtained?Is it likely that recalls will be needed to replace defective parts or systems? Communicating the design to others is the final,vital presentation step in the design process.Undoubtedly,many great designs,inventions,and creative works have been lost to posterity simply because the originators were unable or unwilling to explain their accomplishments to others.Presentation is a selling job.The engineer, when presenting a new solution to administrative,management,or supervisory persons, is attempting to sell or to prove to them that this solution is a better one.Unless this can be done successfully,the time and effort spent on obtaining the solution have been largely wasted.When designers sell a new idea,they also sell themselves.If they are repeatedly successful in selling ideas,designs,and new solutions to management,they begin to receive salary increases and promotions:in fact,this is how anyone succeeds in his or her profession. An excellent reference for this topic is presented by Stuart Pugh,Total Design-Integrated Methods for Successful Product Engineering.Addison-Wesley,1991.A description of the Pugh method is also provided in Chap.8,David G.Ullman,The Mechanical Design Process,3rd ed.,McGraw-Hill,2003

Much of engineering course work and practical experience focuses on competence, but when does one begin to develop engineering responsibility and professionalism? To start on the road to success, you should start to develop these characteristics early in your educational program. You need to cul￾tivate your professional work ethic and process skills before graduation, so that when you begin your formal engineering career, you will be prepared to meet the challenges. It is not obvious to some students, but communication skills play a large role here, and it is the wise student who continuously works to improve these skills—even if it is not a direct requirement of a course assignment! Success in engineering (achieve￾ments, promotions, raises, etc.) may in large part be due to competence but if you can￾not communicate your ideas clearly and concisely, your technical proficiency may be compromised. You can start to develop your communication skills by keeping a neat and clear journal/logbook of your activities, entering dated entries frequently. (Many companies require their engineers to keep a journal for patent and liability concerns.) Separate journals should be used for each design project (or course subject). When starting a project or problem, in the definition stage, make journal entries quite frequently. Others, as well as yourself, may later question why you made certain decisions. Good chrono￾logical records will make it easier to explain your decisions at a later date. Many engineering students see themselves after graduation as practicing engineers designing, developing, and analyzing products and processes and consider the need of good communication skills, either oral or writing, as secondary. This is far from the truth. Most practicing engineers spend a good deal of time communicating with others, writing proposals and technical reports, and giving presentations and interacting with engineering and nonengineering support personnel.

When given an assignment to write or make any presenta￾tion, technical or nontechnical, accept it enthusiastically, and work on improving your communication skills. It will be time well spent to learn the skills now rather than on the job. When you are working on a design problem, it is important that you develop a systematic approach. Careful attention to the following action steps will help you to organize your solution processing technique. • Understand the problem. Problem definition is probably the most significant step in the engineering design process. Carefully read, understand, and refine the problem statement. • Identify the known. From the refined problem statement, describe concisely what information is known and relevant. • Identify the unknown and formulate the solution strategy. State what must be deter￾mined, in what order, so as to arrive at a solution to the problem. Sketch the compo￾nent or system under investigation, identifying known and unknown parameters. Create a flowchart of the steps necessary to reach the final solution. The steps may require the use of free-body diagrams; material properties from tables; equations

Check the order of magnitude,dimensionality,trends,signs,etc. Evaluate your solution.Evaluate each step in the solution,noting how changes in strategy,decisions,assumptions,and execution might change the results,in positive or negative ways.If possible,incorporate the positive changes in your final solution. Present your solution.Here is where your communication skills are important.At this point,you are selling yourself and your technical abilities.If you cannot skill- fully explain what you have done,some or all of your work may be misunderstood and unaccepted.Know your audience. As stated earlier,all design processes are interactive and iterative.Thus,it may be nec- essary to repeat some or all of the above steps more than once if less than satisfactory results are obtained. In order to be effective,all professionals must keep current in their fields of endeavor.The design engineer can satisfy this in a number of ways by:being an active member of a professional society such as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME),the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE),and the Society of Manufacturing Engineers (SME);attending meetings,conferences,and seminars of societies,manufacturers,universities,etc.;taking specific graduate courses or programs at universities;regularly reading technical and professional journals;etc.An engineer's education does not end at graduation. The design engineer's professional obligations include conducting activities in an ethical manner.Reproduced here is the Engineers'Creed from the National Society of Professional Engineers(NSPE): As a Professional Engineer I dedicate my professional knowledge and skill to the advancement and betterment of human welfare. I pledge: To give the utmost of performance; To participate in none but honest enterprise; To live and work according to the laws of man and the highest standards of pro- fessional conduct; To place service before profit,the honor and standing of the profession before personal advantage,and the public welfare above all other considerations.
