Hi Greg, thanks for the response. I have reviewed both of those sources, neither appear to apply as both have some form of "slenderness ratio" for which long (eg 5m) pipes are outside the scope of the paper.
Tmoose, the shaft is able to move axially - I would expect it to fail by buckling...
Hi everyone,
I am currently reviewing a simple hollow shaft "extension" design which is basically a pipe with a flange at each end under torsion.
Calculations for shear and angle of deflection are readily available, but I have been unable to find a reference for calculating the allowable...
