Torsion

A shaft PQ is twisted when subjected to equal and opposite torques on either side. Consider a section perpendicular to the shaft's axis through an …
A unique property of circular shafts is that under torsion, every cross-section remains plane and undistorted, rotating as a solid rigid slab. To …
Consider a case when the torque applied to the circular shaft is within Hooke's law limit, so there is no permanent deformation. Now, recall the …
Consider a circular shaft of length L and a uniform cross-section of radius r subjected to a torque at its free end. The maximum shearing strain in the …
The electric motor exerts a 700 N-m torque on an aluminium shaft, causing it to rotate at a constant speed. Pulleys B and C experience torques of 300 N-m …
The design specifications required for a transmission shaft are the power transmitted by the shaft and its rotation speed. Based on these specifications, …
Recall the elastic torsion formula, applicable to a circular shaft with a uniform cross-section. Here, it is assumed that the shafts are loaded at their …
When materials are subjected to stresses exceeding their yield strength, plastic deformation occurs, causing a permanent strain. In the case of circular …
Within the elastic limit, the maximum stress in a solid circular shaft varies linearly with a radial distance from its axis. As the torque increases, the …
In elastoplastic materials, residual stress can develop when the material undergoes plastic deformation due to high shearing stress or large strains. When …
During torsional loading, the cross-sections of the circular shafts remain plane and undistorted since they are axis-symmetric. However, due to the lack …
Consider a small portion of width 'dx' from a thin-walled hollow shaft of thickness 't' subjected to torsional loading. Since the portion …
Residual stress is an essential factor to keeping the hermeticity and robustness of a glass-to-metal seal structure. The purpose of this report is to …
This study presents a methodology for the rapid fabrication and micro-tensile testing of additively manufactured (AM) 17-4PH stainless steels by combining …
