The Wahl's stress factor (K) for springs is given by
(where \(C = Spring index = \frac { Mean dia. of spring (D) } { dia. of wire (d)}\) -
According to Rankine's theory, the failure occurs at a point in a member

The dedendum is the radial distance from the

In a steam engine, the valve rod is connected to an eccentric rod by means of
-
In helical gears, the distance parallel to the axis, between similar faces of adjacent teeth, is called
A.
