Question

A solid shaft is subjected to a twisting moment of  150 kNm. If the angle of twist is  8º per meter of the shaft and the shear stress is not to exceed 550 MPa. Determine the suitable shaft diameter by comparing the strength design and rigidity design. Also, determine the maximum shear strain acting on the shaft. Take G 250 GPa.

Diameter of shaft based on Strength design is in mm

Diameter of shaft based on rigidity design is in  mm

The sutable Diameter of the shaft is in mm

The maximum shear strain is
