A hollow shaft has an inner diameter of 3.7 cm and an outer diameter of 4.0 cm.

A 1 kN-m torque is
applied to this shaft. What is the shear stress at the mid-radius of this shaft?

SOLUSI :

mid radius = 0.5(3.7+(4-3.7))=1.925 cm

A hollow circular tube with a 2.3-cm I.D. and 2.5-cm O.D. is rigidly supported at its ends. A 2.5 kN-m
torque is applied at the center of this tube. What is the maximum shear stress acting on this tube?

SOLUSI :

At a certain point during operation, the crankshaft of an automobile


engine can be modeled as shown here. In this figure, T1 = T3 = 10 kN-m,
T2 = T4 = 5 kN-m, and x = 10 cm. This shaft is solid and is to be sized so
that the maximum shear stress does not exceed 150 MPa. What is the
minimum diameter of this shaft?

SOLUSI :
The hollow (ID = 4 cm, OD = 6 cm) 1-m-long, steel (G = 77 GPA) shaft shown
here is loaded by T1 = T3 = 3 kN-m and T2 = T4 = 10 kN-m. What is the
angular rotation of plane C with respect to plane A of this shaft?

SOLUSI:

A hollow AB(ID = 1.6 cm, OD = 2 cm), 0.5-m-long, steel (G = 77 GPA) shaft is


attached to a solid BC (OD = 2 cm), 0.25-m-long, brass (G = 39 GPA) rod as
shown here. This assembly is then rigidly mounted with fixed ends. What is the
angle of twist of plane B when a 150 N-m torque is applied at B?

SOLUSI :
The gearbox shown here is used to change the speed of rotation. Two
shafts support gears B and E with bearings at A, C, D and F. The pitch
diameter of gear E is 8 cm and that of gear B is 14 cm. A 120 N-m
torque is applied as T1. What is the shear stress in shaft DEF, which is
solid and has a diameter of 4 cm?
