Machine Design is the most important and key subject for Mechanical Engineers. It involves the application of all other areas of Mechanical Engineering, like Knowledge of Materials, Strength of Materials, Theory of Machines and Mechanisms, Processing and Production of Objects, Measuring Techniques, Application of Computing and Information Technology, Quantity and Reliability, Heath, Safety and Environmental Aspects, etc. This book tries to lay heavy stress on integration of all such considerations in finding solutions of problems. The book provides enough theory and solved problems to prepare engineers to face real life problems in actual field. All through S.I. Units have been used. The book has been written exhaustively to cover total syllabi of all universities in the country. Wherever considered necessary, attention has been drawn to use of Indian standard specifications prepared by Bureau of Indian Standards. A large number of questions set in university examinations and competitive examinations have been solved thoroughly. All chapters have been arranged systematically and cover all the important and necessary aspects. Short questions and answers usually asked in interviews have been added in this edition.
