Torsion Problems

1. A thin-walled aluminum tube is connected to a rigid steel shaft through a disk at one end. The tube is subjected to a torque T. The problem is to determine the maximum torque T0 that can be applied while allowing stresses in the aluminum tube and steel shaft to remain below specified values. 2. A thin-walled tube with a square cross-section and thickness t is loaded by a constant torque T along its length. The problem is to determine the shear stress in the cross-section. 3. A thin-walled tube with one end fixed and the other end free is loaded by torques T1 and T2 as shown. The problem is to determine the maximum shear
