    Degrees
AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the degree of twist in a shaft between points C and D, with the user having already completed several related tasks. They have calculated bending, shear, and torsional stresses but are struggling to find a realistic answer for the twist, which should be a small value. The user provides an elastic modulus of 81,300 N/mm² and references a formula for torsional deflection. They seek assistance in verifying their calculations and understanding the correct application of the formula. The conversation emphasizes the need for clarity in the calculations to achieve accurate results.

Hi!
I need help with a task. I have done previous calculations on the shaft, but I'm stuck now, as I'm going to find out how many degrees the shaft is twisting from point C to D. I have calculated bending/shear stress, torsion stress and the last stress that i don't know in english, but the formula is like this:

So I am wondering if anyone has done this before?

Welcome to the PF. :smile:

Can you post a diagram of the shaft and how it is being held and torqued? Use the UPLOAD button in the lower right of the Edit window to attach a PDF or JPEG file to your reply. Thanks.
 
Thank you! :)

The picture of the shaft with belt transmission is showed in task 6.1 The describtion is in norwegian, as I'm from Norway. I have done task a) b) c) and d). Now, task e) says: How many degrees will the shaft twist between point C and D? Elastic modul is given 81.300 N/mm^2.

Please see the other picture with the equation marked in red: I think that is the correct formula to use, but I can't seem to get a realistic answer.. The answer should me 0,... something but I get 58.8.

Do you know about theta=T*L/(J*G)?
 

Thread 'Bubble formation in 4 mm gap vessel'

How did you find PF?: Via Google search Hi, I have a vessel I 3D printed to investigate single bubble rise. The vessel has a 4 mm gap separated by acrylic panels. This is essentially my viewing chamber where I can record the bubble motion. The vessel is open to atmosphere. The bubble generation mechanism is composed of a syringe pump and glass capillary tube (Internal Diameter of 0.45 mm). I connect a 1/4” air line hose from the syringe to the capillary The bubble is formed at the tip...

Thread 'Physics of Stretch: What pressure does a band apply on a cylinder?'

Scenario 1 (figure 1) A continuous loop of elastic material is stretched around two metal bars. The top bar is attached to a load cell that reads force. The lower bar can be moved downwards to stretch the elastic material. The lower bar is moved downwards until the two bars are 1190mm apart, stretching the elastic material. The bars are 5mm thick, so the total internal loop length is 1200mm (1190mm + 5mm + 5mm). At this level of stretch, the load cell reads 45N tensile force. Key numbers...

Thread 'Find 3D Printer & Software Resources for Prototype Creation'

I'd like to create a thread with links to 3-D Printer resources, including printers and software package suggestions. My motivations are selfish, as I have a 3-D printed project that I'm working on, and I'd like to buy a simple printer and use low cost software to make the first prototype. There are some previous threads about 3-D printing like this: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/are-3d-printers-easy-to-use-yet.917489/ but none that address the overall topic (unless I've missed...
