Abstract
In Sects. 7.1–8.3 we have only treated beams that deform in a plane, but did not consider the phenomenon of torsion of beams and bars although plane beams and bars under torsion often remain in the plane. In principle, torsion of straight, one-dimensional members is relatively easy and therefore we did not devote space for that subject but introduce it here through the example below.
