Solid Non-Circular Shafts - Torsion - Strengths of Materials

Instagram:   / engineering_made_possible   This video shows how to solve for the maximum shear stress and angle of twist for shaft of different cross-sectional areas besides the circular shaft. (0:00) Solid Non-Circular Shafts - Torsion (3:23) Problem statement: If the shaft has an equilateral triangle cross section and is made from an alloy that has an allowable shear stress of 12ksi, determine the maximum allowable torque T that can be applied to end B. Also, find the corresponding angle of twist of end B.
