11. The rotating solid shaft is simply supported by bearings at points B1 and B2 and it's made of a heat-treated steel (yield strength =450MPa and ultimate strength =700MPa) with a small diameter of (d=20mm), large diameter of (D=30mm), and fillet radius of (r?2mm) at its shoulder for bearing support. The shaft is driven by a gear (not shown) which meshes with a spur gear at mid point between B1 and B2. The gear has a 75?mm piteh diameter where the resulting force of 2kN is applied at 20? line of action. Follow the steps below to calculate the fatigue safety factor using DEGoodman criterion if the reliability goal for the endurance limit is 95%. (70 pts)
