Shafts Torsion. The torsion of solid or hollow shafts - Polar Moment of Inertia of Area. Shear Stress in the Shaft. When a shaft is subjected to a torque or twisting a shearing stress is produced in the shaft. The shear stress varies from zero in the axis to a maximum at the outside surface of the shaft.

shafts for gas turbine engines, propeller driven aircraft and helicopters (rotorcraft). However, the basic principles are more general and will provide you with a basis for understanding how structures with arbitrary cross-sections carry torsional moments.
Torsional Loads on Circular Shafts. Interested in stresses and strains of circular shafts subjected to twisting couples or torques. Turbine exerts torque T on the shaft. Shaft transmits the torque to the generator. Generator creates an equal and opposite torque T’.
The SM for a mode can be calculated as follows: SM = ∣ f e − f n ∣ / f e. such that SM is the SM, fe is the frequency of excitation, and fn is the natural frequency of concern. SMs of more than 10% are preferred or a force response analysis is required.

General torsion equation. All torsion problems that you are expected to answer can be solved using the following formula: where: T = torque or twisting moment, [N×m, lb×in] J = polar moment of inertia or polar second moment of area about shaft axis, [m 4, in 4] τ = shear stress at outer fibre, [Pa, psi]
Torsion Formula: Where q = shear intensity at radius r. r = radius at a point = maximum shear stress at the surface of a shaft. R = radius of the shaft. G = shear modulus of the material = angle of twist. l = length of the shaft. T = torque. J = polar moment of inertia. is also termed as twist per unit length.
