The procedure to solve this problem can be outlined as:
• Equilibrium
Draw a free-body diagram of end to determine the relationship of internal torques
and to the applied torque .
• Geometry of deformation
Since the two shafts are bonded together, the angle of twist in both shafts must be identical.
• Torque-twist relationships
The relationship between internal torque and angle of twist will be expressed for each shaft.
• Compatibility equation
The torque-twist relationships will be substituted into the geometry of deformation relationship to derive a compatibility equation expressed in
terms of the internal torques and .
