Question
A circular tube of aluminum is subjected to
torsion by torques T applied at the ends (see figure).
The bar is 24 in. long, and the inside and outside
diameters are 1.25 in. and 1.75 in., respectively. It is
determined by measurement that the angle of twist
is 48 when the torque is 6200 lb-in.
(a) Calculate the maximum shear stress t max in the
tube, the shear modulus of elasticity G, and the
maximum shear strain Υmax (in radians).
(b) If the maximum shear strain in the tube is
limited to 2.5 x10 -3 and the inside diameter
is increased to 1.375 in., what is the maximum
permissible torque?
