Write the Shear strain max formula for Torsion?

Expert Solution
Step 1

To calculate the maximum shear strain value for torsion we must take into account the torsion equation of the shaft which can be given as:

 TJ =τr=Lwhere T =twisting moment             J =polar moment of inertia             τ =torsional shear stress            r =radius of the shaft            G = modulus of rigidity             θ =angle of twist in radians             L = length of shaftFor calculating maximum shear stress we have to consider maximum torsional shear stressMaximum torsional shear stress will occur at the maximum distance from the center of the shaft i.e rmax =R
