Question 59

AENAT2 marksNeeds review
A 0.5 m long thin-walled circular shaft of radius 2 cm is to be designed for an axial load of 7.4 kN and a torque of 148 Nm applied at its tip, as shown in the figure.
The allowable stress under uniaxial tension is 100 MPa.
Using maximum principal stress criterion, the minimum thickness,

, of the shaft so that it does not fail is ______ mm (rounded off to the nearest integer).
