*5.6 SOLID NONCIRCULAR SHAFTS
• Shafts with noncircular x-sections are not axisymmetric, as such, their x-sections will bulge or warp when it is twisted

5. Torsion
EXAMPLE 5.13 (SOLN)
By inspection, resultant internal torque at any x-section along shaft’s axis is also T. Using formulas from Table 5-1,
allow = 20T/a3; ... T = 179.2 N·m
allow = 46TL/a3Gal; ... T = 24.12 N·m
By comparison, torque is limited due to angle of twist.

EXAMPLE 5.13 (SOLN)
Circular x-section
We need to calculate radius of the x-section.Acircle = Atriangle; ... c = 14.850 mm
Limitations of stress and angle of twist require
allow = Tc/J; ... T = 288.06 N·m
allow = TL/JGal; ... T = 33.10 N·m
Again, torque is limited by angle of twist.
Comparing both results, we can see that a shaft of circular x-section can support 37% more torque than a triangular one

*5.7 THIN-WALLED TUBES HAVING CLOSED CROSS SECTIONS
• Thin-walled tubes of noncircular shape are used to construct lightweight frameworks such as those in aircraft

*5.7 THIN-WALLED TUBES HAVING CLOSED CROSS SECTIONS
Shear flow• Force equilibrium requires the
forces shown to be of equal magnitude but opposite direction, thus AtA = BtB
• This product is called shear flow q, and can be expressed as

5.8 STRESS CONCENTRATION
• K, can be obtained from a graph as shown
• Find geometric ratio D/d for appropriate curve

5.8 STRESS CONCENTRATION
IMPORTANT• Stress concentrations in shafts occur at points of
sudden x-sectional change. The more severe the change, the larger the stress concentration
• For design/analysis, not necessary to know exact shear-stress distribution on x-section. Instead, obtain maximum shear stress using stress concentration factor K
• If material is brittle, or subjected to fatigue loadings, then stress concentrations need to be considered in design/analysis.

5. Torsion
EXAMPLE 5.21 (SOLN)
Plastic torqueApplying Eqn 5-23,
When tube is fully plastic, yielding started at inner radius, ci = 25 mm and Y = 0.002 rad, thus angle of twist for entire tube is

• If shaft is statically indeterminate, reactive torques determined from equilibrium, compatibility of twist, and torque-twist relationships, such as = TL/JG
• Solid noncircular shafts tend to warp out of plane when subjected to torque. Formulas are available to determine elastic shear stress and twist for these cases
• Shear stress in tubes determined by considering shear flow. Assumes that shear stress across each thickness of tube is constant

CHAPTER REVIEW
• Shear stress in tubes determined from = T/2tAm
• Stress concentrations occur in shafts when x-section suddenly changes. Maximum shear stress determined using stress concentration factor, K (found by experiment and represented in graphical form). max = K(Tc/J)
• If applied torque causes material to exceed elastic limit, then stress distribution is not proportional to radial distance from centerline of shaft

CHAPTER REVIEW
• Instead, such applied torque is related to stress distribution using the shear-stress-shear-strain diagram and equilibrium
• If a shaft is subjected to plastic torque, and then released, it will cause material to respond elastically, causing residual shear stress to be developed in the shaft
