Chapter 6, Problem 6.31

(choose chapter or problem)

A straight round shaft is subjected to a torque of \(5000 \ \mathrm{lb} \cdot \mathrm{in}\). Determine the required diameter, using steel with a tensile yield strength of 60 ksi and a safety factor of 2 based on initial yielding:

(a) According to the maximum-normal-stress theory.

(b) According to the maximum-shear-stress theory.

(c) According to the maximum-distortion-energy theory.

Discuss briefly the relative validity of the three predictions.
