How to calculate combined effect of bending and torsional stress on a rotating pipe?

You can calculate the combined effect of bending and torsional stress on a rotating pipe using the outside diameter. The angle of rotation and the shearing stress should also be considered.


What are the 5 types of mechanical stress?

There actually only 3 principle types of stress: Tensile, Compressive and Shear. The other two are actually combinations of those three. Those stresses are torsional and bending. Torsional stress is generally a tangentially arranged collection of shear stresses. Bending is a combination of both compression and tension on opposite sides of a neutral plane through the bending section.


What kind of stress is developed in bolt when nut is tightened?

Torque on a bolt places the bolt in Tension. The stresses are tensile stresses. There can also be torsional stress in the bolt, which is detrimental. That is minimized by lubricating the threads first, with anti-seize, thread locker (before cure), or surface treatment of the threads. In some cases, it is standard practice to back off nuts slightly after torquing to relieve the torsional stress.


Is torsional critical speed the same as torsional Analysis?

Torsional analysis: This analysis completed based on strcture properties like Mass MI and Torsional stiffness. Torsional critical speed analysis: Speed of rotor will come into picture in addition to Mass MI and Torsional stiffness of the structure.


What is the torsional rigidity of a shaft?

It is defined as ratio of the product of modulus of rigidity and polar moment of inertia to the length of the shaft. Torsional Rigidity is caluclated as: Torsional Rigidity= C J/l

What is torsional critical speed?

The term torsional critical speed of centrifugal pumps and associated drive equipment refers to the speed of a pump rotor or related rotating system that corresponds to a resonant frequency of torsional vibration of the rotating system. Torsional critical speeds are associated with torsional or angular deflection of the rotor and are not to be confused with lateral critical speeds associated with lateral deflection. The two are separate entities. A given rotor or rotating system may possess more than one torsional resonant frequency or torsional critical speed. The lowest frequency which produces the "first mode shape" and "first torsional critical speed" is in general of the most concern. Torsional vibration is caused by torsional excitation from sources such as variable frequency drive motor toque pulsations, combustion engine torque spikes and impeller vane pass pulsation. The calculation of the first torsional critical speed is fairly simple for simple rotor systems.

How can one convert between Newton meter by degree and Megapascal as units of torsional rigidity?

One pascal is 1newton/meter^2. Therefore one megapascal is 10^6 newton/meter^2. Megapascal is a unit of Pressure (to be precise, stress) . So we cannot convert between Newton meter per degree and Megapascal as units of torsional rigidity.

Is Modulus of rupture the same as Maximum stress?

Yes.Modulus of RuptureUltimate strength determined in a flexure or torsion test. In a flexure test, modulus of rupture in bending is the maximum fiber stress at failure. In a torsion test, modulus of rupture in torsion is the maximum shear stress in the extreme fiber of a circular member at failure. Alternate terms are flexural strength and torsional strength.


Moment of inertia and torsional vibrations?

in torsional vibrations moment of inertia is a very important determining factor. it is a quantitative measure of the resistance of an object to torsion. it is synonymous to mass in displacement systems. the greater the moment of inertia the lesser the degree of torsional vibrations and vice versa. moment of inertia relates torsional vibrations to the geometry of the part considered irrespective of its composing material and its strength.
