The calculation formulas for linear helical springs with an inconstant wire diameter and with a variable mean diameter of spring are presented. Based on these formulas the optimization of spring for given spring rate and strength of the wire is performed. The design principles for optimal leaf springs are briefly presented. This chapter is the entry section of first part, which studies the springs from the viewpoint of design.
