TORSION of Circular shafts
T Axis of shaft T A bar subjected to moment in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (i.e., in the plane of cross – section of the member) is said to be in ‘TORSION’. This moment is called ‘Twisting Moment’ or ‘Torque’. Torque = T Unit : N-m, kN-m, etc.
r r Net Torque Due to Internal Stresses • Net of the internal shearing stresses is an internal torque, equal and opposite to the applied torque. If ‘τ’ is the shear stress developed in the element, then, the elementary resisting force is, dF = τ × dA ∴ Elementary resisting torsional moment is, dT = dF × r = τ × dA × r ∴ Total resisting torsional moment is, The internal forces develop to counteract the torque.
T dF1 Axis of shaft dF3 dF2 PURE TORSION : A member is said to be in ‘Pure torsion’, when its cross sections are subjected to only torsional moments (or torque) and not accompanied by axial forces and bending moment. Consider the section of shaft under pure torsion. The internal forces develop to counteract the torque.
At any element, the force dF developed is in the direction normal to radial direction. This force is obviously shearing force and thus the elements are in pure shear. If dA is the area of the element at a distance ‘r’ from the axis of the shaft, then dF = τ × dA and dT = dF × r where τis shearing stress
ASSUMPTIONS IN THE THEORY OF PURE TORSION: • The material is homogeneous, isotropic and obeys Hooke’s law (stresses are within elastic limit, i.e., shear stress is proportional to shear strain). • Cross sections which are plane before applying twisting moment remain plane even after the application of twisting moment, i.e., no warping takes place. • Radial lines remain radial even after applying torque, i.e., circular sections remain circular. • The twist along the shaft is uniform. • Shaft is subjected to pure torsion.
B’ B’ Φ θ θ B A B O O T L TORSION FORMULA : When a circular shaft is subjected to torsion, shear stresses are set up in the material of the shaft. To determine the magnitude of shear stress at any point on the shaft, Consider a circular shaft of length ‘L’, fixed at one end and subjected to a torque ‘T’ at the other end as shown. R The line AB rotates by an angle Φ and the point B shifts to point Bl, when the free end rotates by an angle ‘θ’ due to the applied torque ‘T’.
R ×θ L ∴Φ = If ‘Φ’ is the shear strain (angle BABl) and ‘θ’ is the angle of twist in length ‘L’, then tan(Φ) = BBl / AB = BBl / L Since Φ is small, tan(Φ) =Φ= BBl/L But BBl = Rθ => L × Φ = R × θ -----(1) If ‘τ’ is the shear stress at the surface of the shaft and ‘G’ is the modulus of rigidity, then, G = τ / Φ => Φ= τ / G
Substituting in (1), we have, (R × θ)= (L × τ) / G τ R G × θ L = ---------(A) => Now for a given shaft subjected to a given torque T, the values of G, θ and L are constant. Hence shear stress produced is proportional to the radius R From equation A, it is clear that intensity of shear stress at any point in the cross – section of the shaft subjected to pure torsion is directly proportional to its distance from the centre. Thus shear stress increases linearly from zero at axis to maximum value of τ at the surface.
R τ= R × G×θ L G × θ L B τr r τr ----------(2) r τ R => = = R r If B is a point at a distance ‘r’ from centre instead of on the surface, then
Consider an elemental area ‘dA’ at a distance ‘r’ from the axis of the shaft (or centre). τ × r R τr = τ dA τr dF ∴ dT = τ × dA × r2 R r r R R If ‘τr’ is the shear stress developed in the element, then, the elementary resisting force is, dF = τr × dA ∴ Elementary resisting torsional moment is, dT = dF × r = τr × dA × r But from eq. (2), we have,
τ× r2 × dA τ∫ r2 × dA R R ∫ T = => T = ∴ T ττr J R r ∴ T = τ × J R = ----------(B) = ∴ Total resisting torsional moment is, But ∫r2 × dA is nothing but polar moment of inertia of the section, we have J = ∫ r2 × dA .
T τ G × θ J R L = = From (A) and (B) , we get, T = Torsional moment (N-m) (m4) J = Polar moment of inertia τ = Shear stress (N/m2) R = Radius of the shaft (m) G = Modulus of rigidity (N/m2) (radians) θ = Angle of twist L = Length of the shaft (m)
T τ× J τ ×ZP R = = T τ J R = POLAR MODULUS : Where ZP = J/R = polar modulus. Where τ is maximum shear stress (occurring at surface) and R is extreme fibre distance from centre. Thus polar modulus is the ratio of polar moment of inertia to extreme radial distance of the fibre from the centre. Unit : m3
T G × J × θ L = T G × θ J L = TORSIONAL RIGIDITY (OR STIFFNESS) : Torsional stiffness is the amount of toque required to produce unit twist. When unit angle of twist is produced in unit length, we have, T = G × J × (1/1) = GJ. Thus the term ‘GJ’ may be looked as torque required to produce unit angle of twist in unit length and is called as, ‘torsional rigidity’ or ‘stiffness’ of shaft. Unit : N-mm2
