Shear and torsion forces are a combination of what?

Shear and torsion forces are a combination of bending stress. This stress characterizes the behavior of a structural object subjected to an external load, which is applied perpendicular to the axis of the object.


Where in the in cross section minimum shear stress is developed in case of a circular shaft under torsion?

Under torsion only, the shear stress is minimum, in fact zero, at the center point ( where radius is zero)


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.

What is torsion testing machine?

A torsion testing machine is used for determining the shear stress, modulus of rigidity, strain energy, ultimate torsional stress, etc of a material. It is mainly used in the field of Mechanical Engineering. The machine consists of two jaws. One jaw is capable of rotating whereas the other jaw remains stationary. The movable jaw is driven by an electric motor which can be operated in both forward and reverse directions.


What is torsion strength?

Torsion strength measures the largest torsion force the material can withstand and still spring back into its original shape.
