Abstract

It is very difficult to obtain a “pure” torsion (Fig. 24.1). On the other hand, a bent shaft (Fig. 24.2, top), i.e. a tubular or circular cross section bar, is more rarely used for force measuring because it is mainly intended as an industrial rotating shaft torque transducer [24.1]. So, in this chapter we try to analyze the complex loading of the static and rotating shafts.
