Abstract
A SPRING is defined as a device for storing and retaining energy. This definition is very much a simplification and every designer should have some idea of what is involved in selection of springs and the design of them where necessary. This article only covers springs made from metallic materials, although mention must be made of the fact that springs may be devised from such materials as glass fibre reinforced plastics, rubber, air and other fluids.
