Stress Concentrations
• The derivation of the torsion formula,

J
assumed a circular shaft with uniform
cross-section loaded through rigid end
plates.
• The use of flange couplings, gears and
pulleys attached to shafts by keys in
keyways, and cross-section discontinuities
can cause stress concentrations
• Experimental or numerically determined
concentration factors are applied as

Plastic Deformations
• With the assumption of a linearly elastic material,
Tc

J
• If the yield strength is exceeded or the material has
a nonlinear shearing-stress-strain curve, this
expression does not hold.
• Shearing strain varies linearly regardless of
material properties. Application of shearing-stress-
strain curve allows determination of stress
• distribution.
The integral of the moments from the internal stress
distribution is equal to the torque on the shaft at the
section,

Residual Stresses
• Plastic region develops in a shaft when subjected to a
large enough torque
• When the torque is removed, the reduction of stress
and strain at each point takes place along a straight line
to a generally non-zero residual stress
• On a T-f curve, the shaft unloads along a straight line
to an angle greater than zero
• Residual stresses found from principle of
superposition

Torsion of Noncircular Members
• Previous torsion formulas are valid for
axisymmetric or circular shafts
• Planar cross-sections of noncircular
shafts do not remain planar and stress
and strain distribution do not vary
linearly
• For uniform rectangular cross-sections,

• At large values of a/b, the maximum
shear stress and angle of twist for other
open sections are the same as a
rectangular bar.

Example 3.10
Extruded aluminum tubing with a rectangular
cross-section has a torque loading of 24 kip-
in. Determine the shearing stress in each of
the four walls with (a) uniform wall thickness
of 0.160 in. and wall thicknesses of (b) 0.120
in. on AB and CD and 0.200 in. on CD and
BD.
SOLUTION:
• Determine the shear flow through the
tubing walls
• Find the corresponding shearing stress
with each wall thickness
