PROCEDURE: Five strings are radiating from a single point. These strings pass over smooth pulleys freely slide able along the circumference of a horizontal force table with graduations for measuring angles. Attach five known weights to five strings arranged at particular angles. Note down the readings when the central ring is at centre of force table. As this system is in equilibrium, the resultant force is obtained analytically as well as graphically which should be negligible in magnitude. Draw space diagram by drawing the angle as measured on force table and show the respective forces. Using Bows notation draw force diagram, which will be the polygon. For the system is in equilibrium. The sides of polygon should be five but due to error polygon remains open & hence the closing side in reverse order will represent the resultant.

SYSTEM OF PULLEYS
OBJECT: To Determine the mechanical advantage, velocity ratio, ideal effort, frictional effort, ideal load, frictional load and efficiency of given system of pulleys. THEORY: lifting machines: In all type of machines, one needs to have maximum efficiency so that with minimum effort maximum output will be available. Efficiency is defined as ratio of output to input.
Where, W= Actual load lifted by machine, P= Actual effort applied on machine X= distance moved by load, Y= Distance moved by effort From the above equation efficiency can also be obtained as ratio of Mechanical Advantage and Velocity Ratio. In Ideal machines, there is no friction; therefore no work is wasted in overcoming the frictional resistance. Let Pi and Wi represent ideal effort and ideal load. Therefore, (PPi) represents effort required to overcome friction and (Wi-W) represents load equivalent to reduce friction. We, know that,

System of Pulleys: The most common example of lifting machines is a pulley. To get maximum efficiency, one needs to have maximum M.A. and minimum V.R. To achieve such a condition, pulleys are arranged in different manners, such as, 1) Differential Pulley: Pulleys of different diameter are coupled together. Load is suspended from smaller diameter pulley and effort on large diameter pulley as shown in fig(1). 2) First system of Pulley: Pulleys are arranged together in the manner shown in fig (2). If load moves by distance X then effort moves by 2 n X distance, where n= number of pulleys. Here in this system last pulley is fixed, it is only for changing the direction of effort.

3) Second system of pulleys: As shown in fig (3) it is also known as simple block which consists of fixed (upper) block of pulley and movable (lower) block of pulley to which load is attached. There are two types of arrangement either equal number of pulleys in upper block. There is only one string passing over all the pulleys and effort is connected to it. Sketch the arrangement and free body diagrams for both the types. If X is distance travelled by load, the effort by distance nX

4) Third system of pulleys: The load is attached to a movable platform and each string which is passing over different pulley is attached to earlier pulley. The effort is suspended from string passes through 1st pulley. All the pulleys are movable; no fixed pulley is required as in case of 1st system of pulleys as shown in fig (4). V.R. = 2n-1.

APPARATUS: Vernier caliper MATERIAL: Mild steel and Cast iron
RELATED I.S. CODE IS 1378:1993: HARD METAL- COMPRESSION TEST SALIENT FEATURES There are several materials used in engineering practice that are primarily meant to carry compressive loads. Steel is one such material used as compression member. Relevant mechanical properties are determined by loading a specimen up to failure or a predetermined load. When a specimen is subjected to an axial load on the end surface producing crushing action, an internal resistance is set up against shortening of its length. This resistance is called compressive resistance. The intensity of the resistance is termed as a compressive stress. Thus, compressive stress is a ratio of compressive load (P) to the cross section area (A) resisting it. Fig 9.1 shows a typical stress- strain curves for brittle and ductile materials. Specimen for compression test has tendency to fail by buckling if the length of the specimen is more as compared to the cross-sectional dimensions. Therefore, an

attempt is made to obtain the uniform stress distribution of direct stress over the cross-section normal to the direction of the load by limiting the length of the specimen with respect to cross-sectional dimensions, holding the specimen properly and applying truly axial load. Ductile material viz. mild steel when subjected to this test, keeps on expanding in lateral directions (known as bulging) as the load increases. This bulging enables it to resist almost indefinitely large force without fracture. Therefore, for ductile materials, compressive strength is the strength with respect to an arbitrary chosen deformation. This ability of a material to undergo large plastic deformation under compression is called malleability of ductile material. Fig 9.2 shows the behavior of ductile material under compression load with different aspect ratios. Brittle materials such as C.I. usually fails by shearing along the plane inclined (45 + /2)0 with longitudinal axis, where is defined as angle of internal friction and is defined as maximum angle at which the particle of a matter doesnt slip when placed on an incline. Fig 9.3 shows a specimen with its angle of internal friction. SPECIMEN: For uniform stressing of the compression specimen, a circular section is to be preferred over other shapes. An aspect ratio (defined as ratio height to diameter) of 2 is generally adopted to avoid buckling of the specimen. In this test, two 16 mm diameter specimen of aspect ratio 1.25 and 3.75 are adopted to understand the effect, of slenderness of a specimen when subjected to compressive load.

PRECAUTIONS 1) Specimen should be placed carefully in the centre so that applied load will be exactly an axial load and no eccentricity for the load would occur for the proper transfer of load. 2) End surfaces of the specimen should be perfectly smooth. 3) When the load is nearing its failure value, it is preferable to remain at a safe distance from the machine.

PROCEDURE: 1) Measure the length and diameter of both M.S. Specimen with the help of vernier caliper. 2) Place the specimen with the aspect ratio 1.25 properly on the lower cross-head and bring the middle cross head to a level just touching the upper surface of the specimen. 3) Adjust the capacity of the machine as per the anticipated value to be applied. 4) Apply the compressive load gradually 5) After reaching to the specified value of load, stop the machine and unload the specimen 6) Repeat steps 1 to 5 for another mild steel specimen with aspect ratio of 3.75. 7) Repeat step 1 to 3 for specimen of C.I. and measure only the maximum load at fracture. 8) Test the specimen up to its fracture 9) Unload the specimen and repeat steps 7 to 8 for another cast iron specimen with aspect ratio 3.75. 10) Examine and study the type of fracture/ deformation characteristics for all the specimens.

In this test, standard specimens are compressed between two platens under axial load. Figure 10.1 shows the line diagram of the machine. The mechanical properties such as yield strength, ultimate compressive strength, modulus of toughness are determined by studying the behavior of the specimen under load. Since in this experiment the basic aim is to find and compare the strength of timber under different orientation, therefore, importance is given only to find ultimate strength of the specimen. The possible patterns of the failure of the specimen are shown in the figure. Fig 10.2 a and 10.2 b shows the failure of the specimen under adopted orientations. SPECIMEN: The size of the test specimen shall be 50 x 50 x 200 mm or 20 x 20 x 80 mm if it is to be subjected to load parallel to the grain and its size shall be 50 x 50 x 150 or 20 x 20 x 100mm if it is subjected to load perpendicular to the grain. Figure 2.3 a and 2.3 b shows the arrangement of the specimen when subjected to load. The specimen shall be free from defects and shall not have slope of grain more than 1 in 20 parallel to its longitudinal edges. The end plane of the specimen shall be perfectly at right angle to the length of the specimen. PROCEDURE: 1) Check the specimen for any defects and ensure that the ends are plane and fibers are parallel to its longitudinal edges. 2) Measure the cross- section of the specimen and length of the specimen with vernier calipers. 3) Place the specimen in the lower cross-head such that the load is applied parallel to the grain. 4) Apply the load up to failure of the specimen and observe the type of failure.

5) For second case, place another specimen such that the load is applied perpendicular to the grain. 6) Repeat step 4.
PRECAUTIONS: 1) Specimens should be placed carefully in the centre so that the applied load will be exactly an axial load and no eccentricity for the load would occur for the proper transfer of load. 2) When the load is nearing its failure value, it is preferable to remain at a safe distance from the machine. LIMITATIONS: 1) It is difficult to ensure that the load applied on the specimen is truly concentric and axial. 2) There is always a tendency for bending stress to be set up which may result into slipping of the specimen as the load increases. 3) Friction between the heads of the testing machine and the end surfaces of the specimen due to lateral expansion of the specimen may alter results considerably in comparison to those obtained in the absence of such lateral restraint. 4) The relatively larger cross-section area of the specimen is required to obtain a proper degree of stability of the specimen.

Percentage reduction in area, modulus of elasticity, Yield stress, Ultimate stress and breaking stress. Metals used in engineering structures are mostly ductile e.g. steel, aluminum, brass, copper, but some metals like cast iron are brittle. When specimen is tested under tensile load, both these types behave differently. Ductile metals undergo comparatively large elongations, along the direction of loading accompanied necessarily, with contraction in the traverse direction. At a certain stress level, the specimen ceases to take any additional load but the elongation continues to a certain level, where after additional load is required to increase the elongation. At fracture, ultimately, the specimen breaks at or very near the narrowest section. The fracture is not along a plane right angle it is along an inclined plane and has an appearance of a cup and cone shape. Fig 11.1 shows a typical fracture of a mild steel specimen. Obviously therefore, fracture is not due to insufficient tensile resistance but due to insufficient shear resistance on inclined planes. Thus the stages which a ductile material undergoes are yield-ultimate- breaking stress. The value of braking if calculated with respect to its original area of the specimen, comes to be lesser than ultimate stress and is known as nominal breaking stress, whereas if breaking stress is calculated taking into consideration the instantaneous cross-sectional area, its value comes to be greater than ultimate stress and is known as actual breaking stress or true stress, since engineering design takes into consideration the loads with respect to yield stress, true stress is generally not plotted in the stress-strain curve. Fig 11.3 shows the behavior of mild steel when subjected to tensile load. Brittle metals have inadequate tensile resistance, they do not undergo any worthwhile elongation, they fracture is comparatively abrupt and the fractured surface

Typical fractures of important materials under tension are shown in fig 11.2 SPECIMEN The specimen is specially prepared as per prescribed standard guidelines, which are so framed as to induce failure within the length earmarked for observation called the gauge length. Test piece, the original gauge length of which is related to the original cross sectional area (A0) by the equation L0 = 5.65 A0 are called proportional test piece. The portion in which the specimen is gripped is also highly stressed, but the dimensions are so adjusted that these stresses do not affect failure within the gauge length. Fig 11.1 shows the details of fillet on a specimen. PROPERTIES Test is essentially meant to provide data which can be used for engineering design. PROCEDURE 1. Measure the cross-sectional dimensions of the given specimen and mark gauge length points on the specimen with the help of hammer & punch as per the instructions. 2. Adjust the capacity of U.T.M as per the anticipated value of load at failure of the test specimen. 3.

CODES I.S. 5242-1979: Method of test for determining shear strength of metals. SALIENT FEATURES The test is carried on UTM with the help of a special tool known as shear attachment and is shown in fig 12.1 this test consists of breaking the specimen under single or double shear. This test is essential, as many machine parts and structural members are subjected to shear stress and such static properties in shear play an important role in design. A member is said to be subjected to shear if the line of action of force is parallel to the plane of the cross-sectional resisting it. If only one plane resists, it is called as single shear and if two planes resist shear, it is called as double shear. A shearing stress, acts parallel to a plane, whereas tensile and compressive stresses act normal to the plane. This specimen is tested in the form of a prismatic bar which is held rigidly at one end (in single shear) or at both ends (in double shear) and load is applied through a

The load application is very near the support to avoid the bending of the specimen, the line sketch is shown in fig 12.2 The test consists of gradual application of load till the specimen fail in shear. Maximum load divided by the area under shear is called as the shear strength of the specimen Shear Strength= shear force at failure
Cross-sectional area resisting shear. Following are the important definitions relevant to this test: 1. Complementary shear:
This shear balances the externally applied shear to keep the element in equilibrium. The value of this is equal to externally applied shear and acts in the opposite direction. 2. Pure Shear:
When an element is acted upon by the shear stress, it is said to be in pure shear. The condition of pure shear is difficult to attain. The test carried over here is a theoretical example of an element subjected to pure shear. 3. Punching Shear:
When a body bears on another the type of stress developed in the second one is called punching shear.

PROCEDURE: 1. Check the specimen measure its dimensions and ascertain that the IS requirements are satisfied. 2. Fix the specimen tightly in the vise and ascertain that the longitudinal axis of the specimen lines in the plane of swinging of the hammer. 3. Plane of symmetry of notch should coincide with the top surface of the grips. The hammer should strike on the same side of the notch. 4. Set the pointer to read the energy of the blow of the pendulum. 5. Release the pendulum and allow it to strike the test specimen. 6. Read the indicator and obtain impact value of the specimen by deducting the energy losses from the reading. 7. Study the type of fracture and correlate it with fracture of specimens of different material. 8. Repeat steps 4 to 7 without specimen the indicator reading shows the energy losses due to friction. Note down this value. 9. The impact value of the material is obtained by subtracting reading obtained in step 8 from step 6. LIMITATIONS To determine the impact resistance, temperature should be 320 to 380 because it has a very marked effect on impact resistance of notched bar.

Specimen used in this test are notched type which causes high localized stress concentration, artificially reduces ductility and tends to introduce a brittle type of fracture. SPECIMEN Specimen with notch at suitable position is used for carrying out the impact test on metals for steel specimen. Requirement is as follows: SHAPE OF THE SPECIMEN Square or round Cantilever beam V notch at base Fig no14.2. TYPE TYPE OFNOTCH REFERENCE

PRECAUTIONS 1. It is not advisable to stand near or in front of machine when the pendulum is to be released. 2. Notch should be exactly in the line of action of the pendulum. 3. When specimen is being fitted, care should be taken that pendulum does not get released. APPLICATIONS The Impact test is basically designed to check the suitability of materials subjected to dynamic loads e.g. vehicles travelling over bridges, hull of ship subjected to waves or hammer falling on nail. The ductile material like steel has more impact value and therefore has wide acceptability in structural and other mechanical applications. CONCLUSION
ASSIGNMENT: 1)Students should observe the systems which are subjected to impact load and try to enlist few of them.
