PRELIMINARY RESULT

Equivalent torque for maximum-shear check2.50 kN·m
Nominal maximum shear stress (Tresca basis)
101.86 MPa

Calculation detail

Formula: Te = √(M² + T²); τmax = 16Te / (πd³)

The equivalent torque expresses the maximum-shear-stress (Tresca) combination for nominal elastic stresses in a solid circular shaft.
