Example 4: A hollow circular aluminum alloy (G = 4000 ksi) cylinder has a steel
(G = 12,000 ksi) core as shown in the figure. The steel and aluminum parts are securely
connected at the ends.
(1) If T = 80 kip  in, what are the torques applied at aluminum and steel respectively?
(2) If the allowable stresses in the steel and aluminum must be limited to 12 ksi and 10ksi,
determine the maximum torque that can be applied to the right end of the composite shaft.
(3) Find the rotation of the right end of the composite shaft when the torque of (2) is
applied.

Example 5: A circular bar AB with ends fixed against rotation has a hole extending
for half of its length (see figure). The outer diameter of the bar is d2 = 100 mm and the
diameter of the hole is d1 = 80 mm. The total length of the bar is L = 1250 mm.

that the reactive torques at the supports will be equal?
