Good morning sirs,
let's imagine a cylinder, surrounded on 360° by a coating of the same shape. I can close the 2 half using 2 bolt screws.
what's the maximun transmittable torque?
here's a scheme:
i would to consider the sum of forces as a normal force on the top of the cylinder, producing a tangential force, and so a torque, proportional to the friction coefficient.
My doubt is: why do the total surface is not taken into consideration? is only a section enought?
