Consider the case of shafts subjected to bending moment only.

Figure Q2 shows a pair of wheels of a railway wagon that carries a load of 50kN on each axle box, acting at a distance of 100 mm outside the wheel base. The gauge of the rails is 1.4m.

Figure Q2

If the stress is not to exceed 100MPa, find,

  1. the diameter of the axle between the wheels, and
  2. if a hollow circular shaft is to be used in place of the solid shaft, find the inside and outside diameter when the ratio of inside to outside diameter is 0.5.
Attachment Q2
Shafts Subjected to Bending Moment Only
When the shaft is subjected to a bending moment only, then the maximum stress (tensile or
compressive) is given by the bending equation. We know that
м

where
M = Bending moment,
I = Moment of inertia of cross-sectional area of the shaft about the
axis of rotation,
O, = Bending stress, and
y = Distance from neutral axis to the outer-most fibre.
We know that for a round solid shaft, moment of inertia,
d

y =

Substituting these values in equation (î), we have

From this equation, diameter of the solid shaft (d) may be obtained.
We also know that for a hollow shaft, moment of inertia,

From this equation, the outside diameter of the shaft (d) may be obtained.
