Part III: Shafts Subjected to Axial Load
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 June 2016
Extract
The description of a photoelastic investigation, initiated by the Structures Committee of the Royal Aeronautical Society, into the elastic stress concentration factors associated with shouldered shafts subjected to various simple forms of loading is completed in this part of the paper. A general description of the manufacture of the models, the photoelastic techniques employed to evaluate the s.c.f. and the results of the tests on shouldered shafts subjected to torsion and to bending have been given in the previous two parts.
The present paper includes the results of the tests on shafts subjected to axial load, together with details of a supplementary investigation into the limiting value of the s.c.f., for a particular shoulder radius, as the depth of the shoulder is increased to infinity. A summary of the general conclusions for all forms of loading is given at the end of the paper.
