Hibbeler's 10th Edition Example 5.1 Torque and Shear Stress of a Solid Shaft vs. a Hollow Tube

In this video, we solve Hibbeler’s Mechanics of Materials, Example Problem 5.1, comparing the torsional behavior of a solid shaft and a hollow tube subjected to torque. This example highlights an important engineering insight: removing material from the center of a shaft can dramatically improve efficiency without significantly reducing strength. We also examine the shear stress distribution and the stress elements that develop in a shaft under torsion. 🔍 What This Example Covers When a circular shaft is subjected to torque, shear stresses develop throughout the cross section according to the torsion relationship: T = (τJ) / r In this example we: • Compare the torque capacity of a solid shaft and a hollow tube • Calculate the maximum shear stress in each case • Use the polar moment of inertia (J) for each cross section • Identify where the maximum shear stress occurs • Examine the state of stress using stress elements This comparison shows why hollow shafts are widely used in engineering applications, including: • Automotive drive shafts • Aircraft structures • Bicycle frames • Industrial machinery 🧠 Key Engineering Insight: For torsion problems: • Shear stress is zero at the center of the shaft • Shear stress increases linearly with radius • Maximum shear stress occurs AT the outer surface • There is no shear stress or normal stress ON the shaft surface itself Because the center carries little stress, replacing a solid shaft with a hollow tube can save weight while maintaining strength. This concept is one of the reasons tubes and hollow shafts are so common in engineering design. 📚 Textbook Reference: Mechanics of Materials, R. C.
