Problem 12.3

Apply the Boundary Conditions on the two ends and nd with known Mt , E , and . Explain the calculation. 12.4 A 50 mm solid circular shaft is made of 6061-T6 aluminum. Determine the maximum torque T that can be transmitted by the shaft so that the material remains elastic. 12.5 A torque of 1,000 in-lb is to be transmitted using a circular thin-walled hollow shaft made of A36 structural steel. If the wall thickness is 5% of the diameter, determine the minimum diameter required so that the material does not yield. 12.6 A brass shaft is xed at one end and is subjected to a torque of 2,200 lbf - ft at the other end. a) What is the largest shear stress z occurring anywhere in the shaft? b) What is the angle of twist (in degrees) at z = 6 in, and at the right end of the shaft? 12.7 Consider the circular shaft subjected to three torques located at the spacing shown below. Determine the following: a) Angle of twist at x = 190 cm for the shaft shown below.
