Q.4.1.L 

The segment AB of the steel torsion bar is a
cylindrical tube of constant 2-mm wall
thickness. Segment BC is a square tube with a
constant wall thickness of 3 mm. The outer
dimensions of the cross-sections are shown in
the figure. The tubes
are attached to a rigid bracket at B, which is
loaded by a couple formed by the forces P =
16 kN. Determine the maximum shear stress
in the shaft. Take G = 75 GPa.
1.2m
100 mm
1.2m
1 = 3 mm
1= 2 mm
Important reminder: The formulas derived for
thin-walled tubes are just approximations. So,
for the case of hollow circular tubes with
constant thickness, you should still use Tc/J
and TL/JG to solve for the shear stress and
angle of twist, respectively.
