    Given: Diameter of shaft = 40 mm, bending moment = 300 kNmm, torque = 150 kNmm

    Formula: 1) Maximum principle stress = (1 / Zp) x [ M + √M2 + T2]

    here, Zp is the polar sectional modulus, M is the bending moment, T is the torque

    2) Polar sectional modulus (Zp )= (J / R)


    Solution:

    1) Polar sectional modulus = (J / R)

    J = (πd4) / 32 = (π 404) / 32 = 251327.41 mm4

    R = d / 2 = 40 / 2 = 20 mm

    Polar sectional modulus = 251327.41 mm4 / 20 mm = 12566.37 mm3

    2) Maximum principle stress = (1 / Zp) x [ M + √M2 + T2]

    Substituting the given values,

    = (1 / 12566.37) x [300 x 103 +√ (300 x 103)2 + (150 x 103)2

    = 50.57 N/mm2

    The maximum principle stress induced in a solid shaft is 50.57 N/mm2
