ST - Peter'S College of Engineering and Technology

The document is a mechanical engineering exam covering machine design topics. It contains two parts: Part A with 5 short answer questions about machine design processes, stress theories, direct vs bending stress, adaptive design examples and mechanical metal properties. Part B contains 3 longer questions: determining dimensions of a press frame under a load capacity using a safety factor, calculating stress at a point on a shaft given bending, torque and axial loads, and discussing factors that influence machine design.
