Trying to calculate the shear stress for thread, want to understand a bit more behind the formula.
Basically the shearing area is calculated as:
Area=0.5*Pi*d*L
where d is pitch diameter and L is engagement length. What is the meaning of 0.5? Where does it come from? To me, should be no 0.5 in theory.
