Question: When a rear - wheel drive car accelerates around a bend at high speeds, the drive shaft is subject to both bending and torsional loads.
When a rearwheel drive car accelerates around a bend at high speeds, the drive shaft is subject
to both bending and torsional loads. The accelerating torque is reasonably constant at
while the bending moment at a critical section varies due to cornering and is measured to be
Nm and Nm Design the shaft for infinite life using DEGoodman and
DESoderberg criteria assuming the shaft is uniform crosssection. The reliability in estimating
the endurance limit should be at least and a safety factor of should be used in the
design. The shaft is forged from steel of ultimate strength MPa and yield strength
MPa Use the iterative shaft design procedure and show all the steps in your supporting
work. Your answers should be roundedup to the nearest
DEGoodman criterion,
DESoderberg criterion,
