Mechanical springs, integral to various applications, come in numerous forms like compression, extension, torsion, and more, each with unique characteristics. They function by storing and releasing energy when forces are applied. Springs can be connected in parallel or series, affecting their combined stiffness and load distribution. Materials like high carbon steel and titanium are chosen for their properties like tensile strength and corrosion resistance. While offering benefits like energy efficiency and simple design, springs do face limitations like elastic limits and fatigue. They are widely used in machinery, vehicles, and devices across multiple industries, highlighting their critical role in mechanical engineering.
