Example 23.19. A concentric spring for an aircraft engine valve is to exert a maximum force of 5000 N under an axial deflection of 40 mm. Both the springs have same free length, same solid length and are subjected to equal maximum shear stress of 850 MPa. If the spring index for both the springs is 6, find (a) the load shared by each spring, (b) the main dimensions of both the springs, and (c) the number of active coils in each spring. Assume G = 80 kN/mm² and diametral clearance to be equal to the difference between the wire diameters.
