In the case of pure torsion, the beam element is under pure shear.
In pure shear case, the principal stresses are equal to shear stress acting on the element.

So, here maximum normal shear stress is equal to maximum shear stress.

I think Option A is correct.

When a solid circular shaft is subjected to a torque (T), the maximum stress induced in the shaft is shear, not normal stress. The maximum normal stress is theoretically zero in pure torsion.

The max normal stress for a combination of b.m and torsion is given by;

16(M+(M(sq)+T(sq))^.5/(π)D^3.
put M = 0 in this equation.

Torque equation T/J =F/R.
F=TR/J.
We know R=d/2.
Polar modulus J=pi d^4/32.
Then substitute we can get the given answer.

As per torsional formula :

T = Stress*polar modulus.
Stress = T/Z.
Z = pi*d3/16.
Stress = 16T/pi*d3.

[T/{j=(Ix+Iy)}]=(Ï„/R),
> (T*R)÷j = τ.
>(T*2D)÷(π*D^4/32) = Ï„.
>(T*16)/π*D^3 = Ï„.

There is only torsional shear stress developed no normal will be developed so the answer is A.

Pratul Sharma said:   8 years ago
There will be only shear stress developed due to torsion. So, normal stress is zero only.

Pankaj Pokhrel said:   2 years ago
For pure torsion in a shaft, normal stress is zero. So, A should be the right answer.

Utsav said:   7 years ago
A is correct.
B is for max shear stress.
C is for max bending stress.
