Machine Design I introduces students to the foundational principles of designing mechanical components that withstand various load conditions while ensuring safety, reliability, and manufacturability. The course begins with key concepts including the definition of design, common methodologies, relevant standards, and preferred sizing practices, followed by detailed material selection using BIS designations for steels, alloys, plastics, and rubbers. Students explore static and fluctuating loading scenarios through theories of failure, fatigue design criteria like Soderberg and Goodman, and analyze endurance limits for finite and infinite life. It also covers essential joint types—including riveted, welded, and screwed joints—plus shaft design, key and coupling configurations, mechanical springs, and power screw mechanics. By integrating analytical rigor with practical engineering decisions, Machine Design I equips learners with the skills to design efficient, robust components for real-world applications.
