A mangonel is the perfect example of a torsion engine. The drive provided to this ancient catapult comes from a mass of twisted ropes which create torsion and when released provide the energy required to hurl whatever it is you wish.

It is very important to find the shear center for the beams or sections that are undergoing majority of the load under torsion or twisting then the material will not fail under torsion as at shear centre there will be no effect of torsion or twisting. It will fail only by bending or any other force.
Yes
There are 3 ways to prevent rusting A. Plate the metal with another metal, expensive. B. Paint or coat the metal with a chemical that prevents the metal from getting wet. C. Chemically treat the metal so it can only rust a little and it cannot rust through. Depending on what you are working with would determines the method you use.
Pure shear applies when you twist something (torsion) or under direct lateral load with no bending, as in a pin
The onager was the largest siege engine in the Roman army. It was a one armed spring/torsion device nicknamed the "wild donkey" because of its powerful kick when fired.The onager was the largest siege engine in the Roman army.

Torsion
Torsion means twisting or being twisted. Intestinal torsion can be fatal.
torsion
Torsion strength measures the largest torsion force the material can withstand and still spring back into its original shape.
Vehicle does not have torsion bars
Instead of using coil springs on the front suspension torsion bars are used from the lower control arms to the frame ( my 1995 Ford Explorer 4x4 has torsion bars , my dads 73 Dodge Coronet had torsion bars ) If you look at a lower front suspension that has torsion bars you will see the torsion bars going from the lower control arms rearward
check the torsion dampener.
A Dodge Ram does not have torsion bars.
The tundra does not have torsion bars, buy a lift.
I'm pretty sure that only 4WD trucks have torsion bars.
A 2WD Tahoe does not have torsion adjustment bolts, it uses front coil springs and not torsion bars.
