The assumptions made in the Theory of Pure Torsion or made in deriving the equation for pure torsion are as follows:
Torsional Formula or Torque Twist Shear Stress or Equation of Pure Torsion:
Where is Shear Stress (MPa), is the length of the solid shaft (mm), r is the radius of the shaft (mm), T is the torque or twisting moment (Nmm), G is the Modulus of rigidity (N/mm^2), θ = angle of twist (radians), is the polar moment of inertia.
Torsional Rigidity: It is defined as the torque that produces a twist of one radian in a shaft of unit length. It is represented by k or . Hence k=G=
