Q 1.
(a) Determine the required outside diameter for a hollow shaft if inside diameter is 50 mm ;
to carry a torque of 1000N-m with a maximum torsional shear stress of 50 MPa .(6)
Hint: Outside diameter must be computed using the trial and error method. You need to
balance both sides of the equation by taking trial values. You can start it with Do=
55 mm .
(b) Compute shear stress at inside diameter and draw stress distribution diagram
(c) If this hollow shaft is replaced by solid shaft (same stress/torque/length), compute the
diameter of the solid shaft.
(d) The permissible angle of twist is 0.00064radm for the solid shaft. Is this shaft safe?
Assume the shear modulus for steel as 80 GPa . If unsafe then redesign.
