This page contains set of solved examples from mechanics of materials. On this it's possible to find variuos examples in which stress in shaft is designated. Examples which are placed here you can learn following:
• designation of equilibrium equations
• calculation of shear force
• designation of bending torque
• designation of torosion torque
• designation of maximum stress
Shaft is fixed on both ends. On one end shaft can't move. On second end shaft can move in one direction. On shaft are mounted two different circular plates. Every circular plate is described by its radius. External forces work on specific points of plates. Subject of example is to designate equilibrium equations. Next step is to plot characteristics of shear force, bending torque and torsion torque at whole shaft's length. As final result the minimum diameter of shaft that provides enough strength it's calculated.
