Determine the angle of twist of the free end of a torsion member of Problem 6.6; G = 77.5 GPa.

Problem 6.6

The torsion member shown in Figure P6.6 is made of structural steel with a shear yield strength of τY = 160 MPa and is subjected to two torsional moments.

a. Determine the maximum shear stress in the member.


b. Determine the factor of safety for the given loads and a failure mode of general yielding.
