Hello all,
I was wondering what kind of references design engineers like to have handy? So far, I have
Shigley's Mechanical Engineering Design
and
Roark's Formulas for Stress and Strain
What other references do you like to have on your bookshelf?
Thanks :smile:
Background: To prevent too much torque having to be transmitted through the gearbox on a gate valve, a shear pin is to be fitted between the hand wheel and the gearbox spindle. When a certain torque is reached the pin should rupture and no torque transmitted. See attachment for reference...

I understand that when the rotating magnet spins, current should be induced in the coils which powers the lights.
So what is the point of the soft iron core? The rotating magnet should magnetise it because it is near it, and it should...
