Thickness of Cotter given Compressive Stress in Socket Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Thickness of Cotter = (Load on Cotter Joint)/((Diameter of Socket Collar-Diameter of Spigot)*Compressive Stress In Socket)
t_c = (L)/((d₄-d₂)*σ_cso)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Thickness of Cotter - (Measured in Meter) - Thickness of Cotter is the measure of how much broad is the cotter in direction perpendicular to axial force.
Load on Cotter Joint - (Measured in Newton) - Load on cotter joint is basically the amount of load/force any part or joint, can bear or is acted upon or exerts.
Diameter of Socket Collar - (Measured in Meter) - Diameter of socket collar is the external diameter of collar of the socket of a cotter joint.
Diameter of Spigot - (Measured in Meter) - The diameter of Spigot is defined as the diameter of the external surface of the spigot or the inner diameter of the socket.
Compressive Stress In Socket - (Measured in Pascal) - Compressive Stress In Socket is the amount of stress generated into the socket due to the compressive force onto it.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Load on Cotter Joint: 50000 Newton --> 50000 Newton No Conversion Required
Diameter of Socket Collar: 80 Millimeter --> 0.08 Meter (Check conversion here)
Diameter of Spigot: 40 Millimeter --> 0.04 Meter (Check conversion here)
Compressive Stress In Socket: 58.2 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 58200000 Pascal (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

t_c = (L)/((d₄-d₂)*σ_cso) --> (50000)/((0.08-0.04)*58200000)

Evaluating ... ...

t_c = 0.0214776632302405

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0214776632302405 Meter -->21.4776632302405 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

21.4776632302405 ≈ 21.47766 Millimeter <-- Thickness of Cotter
