A hollow cylindrical steel shaft is 1.5 m long and has inner and outer diameters respectively equal to 40 and 60 mm (Fig. 3.15). (a) What is the largest torque that can be applied to the shaft if the shearing stress is not to exceed 120 MPa? (b) What is the corresponding minimum value of the shearing stress in the shaft?

Step 1
The formula for shearing stress in a hollow cylindrical shaft is: τ = (T * r) / (J * c) Where: τ = shearing stress T = torque r = radius of the shaft J = polar moment of inertia c = distance from the center of the shaft to the outer edge First, let's convert Show more…

The shaft consists of a solid segment $A B$ and a hollow segment $B C$, which are rigidly joined by the coupling at $B$. If the shaft is made from $A-36$ steel, determine the maximum torque $T$ that can be applied according to the maximum-shear-stress theory. Use a factor of safety of 1.5 against yielding.
The internal loadings at a critical section along the steel drive shaft of a ship are calculated to be a torque of $2300 \mathrm{lb} \cdot \mathrm{ft}$ a bending moment of $1500 \mathrm{lb} \cdot \mathrm{ft}$, and an axial thrust of $2500 \mathrm{lb}$. If the yield points for tension and shear are $\sigma_{Y}=100 \mathrm{ksi}$ and $\tau_{Y}=50 \mathrm{ksi},$ respectively, determine the required diameter of the shaft using the maximum shear stress theory.
