Equations of equilibrium in space and its
application; first and second moments of
area; simple problems on friction; kinematics
of particles for plane motion; elementary
particle dynamics.
1.2 Mechanics of deformable bodies:
Generalized Hooke’s law and its application;
design problems on axial stress, shear
stress and bearing stress; material properties
for dynamic loading; bending shear
and stresses in beams;. determination of
principle stresses and strains - analytical
and graphical; compound and combined
stresses; bi-axial stresses - thin walled
pressure vessel; material behaviour and
design factors for dynamic load; design of
circular shafts for bending and torsional
load only; deflection of beam for statically
determinate problems; theories of failure.
2. Engineering Materials:
Basic concepts on structure of solids; common
ferrous and non-ferrous materials and
their applications; heat-treatment of steels;
non-metals- plastics, ceramics, composite
materials and nano-materials.
3. Theory of Machines:
Kinematic and dynamic analysis of plane
mechanisms. Cams, Gears and epicyclic
gear trains, flywheels, governors, balancing
of rigid rotors, balancing of single and
multicylinder engines, linear vibration
analysis of mechanical systems (single
degree of freedom), Critical speeds and
whirling of shafts.
4.2. Manufacturing Management:
System design: factory location- simple OR
models; plant layout - methods based; applications
of engineering economic analysis
and break- even analysis for product
selection, process selection and capacity
planning; predetermined time standards.
System planning; forecasting methods
based on regression and decomposition,
design and balancing of multi model and
stochastic assembly lines; inventory management
– probabilistic inventory models
for order time and order quantity determination;
JIT systems; strategic sourcing;
Heat Transfer:
2.1 Conduction heat transfer- general conduction
equation - Laplace, Poisson and
Fourier equations; Fourier law of conduction;
one dimensional steady state heat
conduction applied to simple wall, solid and
hollow cylinder & spheres.
2.2 Convection heat transfer- Newton’s law
of convection; free and forces convection;
heat transfer during laminar and turbulent
flow of an incompressible fluid over a flat
plate; concepts of Nusselt number, hydrodynamic
and thermal boundary layer their
thickness; Prandtl number; analogy between
heat and momentum transfer-
Reynolds, Colbum, Prandtl analogies; heat
transfer during laminar and turbulent flow
through horizontal tubes; free convection
from horizontal and vertical plates.
