    When the cotter is tight in the socket and spigot, it is subjected to shear stresses.
    When it becomes loose, bending occurs.
    The force P between the cotter and spigot end is assumed as uniformly
    distributed over the length d2. The force between the socket end and
    cotter is assumed to be varying linearly from zero to maximum with
    triangular distribution. The cotter is treated as beam

    For triangular distribution,

    The bending moment is maximum at the centre. At the central

    DESIGN PROCEDURE FOR COTTER JOINT
    It is required to design a cotter joint to connect two steel rods of equal diameter. Each rod is subjected to an
    axial tensile force of 50 kN. Design the joint and specify its main dimensions.

    It is required to design a knuckle joint to connect two circular rods subjected to an axial tensile force of 50 kN. The
    rods are co-axial and a small amount of angular movement between their axes is permissible. Design the joint and
    specify the dimensions of its components. Select suitable materials for the parts.
