C a s e S t u d y 1 ( C S 1 ) Materials Selection for a
Torsionally Stressed
Cylindrical Shaft
CS1.1 INTRODUCTION
Selection of the appropriate material is an important consideration in engineering
design; that is, for some application, choosing a material having a desirable or op-
timum property or combination of properties. Selection of the proper material can
reduce costs and improve performance. Elements of this materials selection process
involve deciding on the constraints of the problem and, from these, establishing
criteria that can be used in materials selection to maximize performance.
The component or structural element we have chosen to discuss is a solid cylin-
drical shaft that is subjected to a torsional stress. Strength of the shaft will be con-
sidered in detail, and criteria will be developed for maximizing strength with respect
to both minimum material mass and minimum cost. Other parameters and properties
that may be important in this selection process are also discussed briefly.
CS1.2 STRENGTH CONSIDERATIONS
For this portion of the design problem, we will establish a criterion for selection of
light and strong materials for the shaft. We will assume that the twisting moment
and length of the shaft are specified, whereas the radius (or cross-sectional area)
may be varied. We develop an expression for the mass of material required in terms
of twisting moment, shaft length, and density and strength of the material. Using
this expression, it will be possible to evaluate the performancethat is, maximize
the strength of the torsionally stressed shaft with respect to mass and, in addition,
relative to material cost.
Consider the cylindrical shaft of length Land radius r, as shown in Figure CS1.1.
The application of twisting moment (or torque) M
t
produces an angle of twist .
Shear stress at radius r is defined by the equation
(CS1.1)
Here, J is the polar moment of inertia, which for a solid cylinder is

After studying this case study, you should be able to do the following:
1. Briefly describe how the strength performance
index for a solid cylindrical shaft is determined.
2. Explain the manner in which materials selection
charts are employed in the materials selection
process.
3. Explain how factors such as a materials cost,
stiffness, and fatigue behavior affect the
materials selection process.

Thus,
(CS1.3)
A safe design calls for the shaft to be able to sustain some twisting moment with-
out fracture. In order to establish a materials selection criterion for a light and strong
material, we replace the shear stress in Equation CS1.3 with the shear strength of
the material , divided by a factor of safety N, as
(CS1.4)
It is now necessary to take into consideration material mass. The mass m of any
given quantity of material is just the product of its density ( ) and volume. Since
the volume of a cylinder is just , then
(CS1.5)
or, the radius of the shaft in terms of its mass is just
(CS1.6)
Substituting this r expression into Equation CS1.4 leads to
(CS1.7)
Solving this expression for the mass m yields
(CS1.8)
The parameters on the right-hand side of this equation are grouped into three sets of
parentheses. Those contained within the first set (i.e., Nand M
t
) relate to the safe func-
tioning of the shaft. Within the second parentheses is L, a geometric parameter. Finally,
the material properties of density and strength are contained within the last set.
The upshot of Equation CS1.8 is that the best materials to be used for a light
shaft that can safely sustain a specified twisting moment are those having low
ratios. In terms of material suitability, it is sometimes preferable to work with what
is termed a performance index, P, which is just the reciprocal of this ratio; that is,
(CS1.9)
In this context, we want to use a material having a large performance index.

A comprehensive collection of these charts may be found in M. F. Ashby, Materials Selec-
tion in Mechanical Design, 3rd edition, Butterworth-Heinemann, Oxford, 2005.

Strength for metals and polymers is taken as yield strength; for ceramics and glasses, com-
pressive strength; for elastomers, tear strength; and for composites, tensile failure strength.
At this point, it becomes necessary to examine the performance indices of a
variety of potential materials. This procedure is expedited by the use of materials
selection charts.
1
These are plots of the values of one material property versus those
of another property. Both axes are scaled logarithmically and usually span about
five orders of magnitude, so as to include the properties of virtually all materials.
For example, for our problem, the chart of interest is logarithm of strength versus
logarithm of density, which is shown in Figure CS1.2.
2
It may be noted on this plot
that materials of a particular type (e.g., woods, engineering polymers, etc.) cluster
together and are enclosed within an envelope delineated with a bold line. Sub-
classes within these clusters are enclosed using finer lines.
Now, taking the logarithm of both sides of Equation CS1.9 and rearranging
yields
(CS1.10)
This expression tells us that a plot of log versus log r will yield a family of straight
and parallel lines all having a slope of ; each line in the family corresponds to a dif-
ferent performance index, P. These lines are termed design guidelines, and four have
been included in Figure CS1.2 for P values of 3, 10, 30, and 100 (MPa)
23
m
3
/Mg. All
materials that lie on one of these lines will perform equally well in terms of strength-
per-mass basis; materials whose positions lie above a particular line will have higher
performance indices, whereas those lying below will exhibit poorer performances. For
example, a material on the P 30 line will yield the same strength with one-third the
mass as another material that lies along the P 10 line.
The selection process now involves choosing one of these lines, a selection
line that includes some subset of these materials; for the sake of argument, let us
pick P 10 (MPa)
23
m

/Mg, which is represented in Figure CS1.3. Materials lying
along this line or above it are in the search region of the diagram and are possi-
ble candidates for this rotating shaft. These include wood products, some plastics, a
number of engineering alloys, the engineering composites, and glasses and engi-
neering ceramics. On the basis of fracture toughness considerations, the engineer-
ing ceramics and glasses are ruled out as possibilities.
Let us now impose a further constraint on the problemnamely, that the
strength of the shaft must equal or exceed 300 MPa (43,500 psi). This may be rep-
resented on the materials selection chart by a horizontal line constructed at
300 MPa, Figure CS1.3. Now the search region is further restricted to the area above
both of these lines. Thus, all wood products, all engineering polymers, other engi-
neering alloys (viz., Mg and some Al alloys), and some engineering composites are
eliminated as candidates; steels, titanium alloys, high-strength aluminum alloys, and
the engineering composites remain as possibilities.
At this point, we are in a position to evaluate and compare the strength per-
formance behavior of specific materials. Table CS1.1 presents the density, strength,
and strength performance index for three engineering alloys and two engineering
composites, which were deemed acceptable candidates from the analysis using the
materials selection chart. In this table, strength was taken as 0.6 times the tensile

yield strength (for the alloys) and 0.6 times the tensile strength (for the compos-
ites); these approximations were necessary because we are concerned with strength
in torsion, and torsional strengths are not readily available. Furthermore, for the
two engineering composites, it is assumed that the continuous and aligned glass
and carbon fibers are wound in a helical fashion (Figure 16.15 of Introduction; Fig-
ure 15.15 of Fundamentals), and at a 45 angle referenced to the shaft axis. The
five materials in Table CS1.1 are ranked according to strength performance index,
from highest to lowest: carbon fiberreinforced and glass fiberreinforced com-
posites, followed by aluminum, titanium, and 4340 steel alloys.
ch01MaterialsSelectionforaTorsionallyStressedCylindricalShaft.qxd 6/18/10 4:45 PM Page 4
Materials cost is another important consideration in the selection process. In
real-life engineering situations, the economics of the application is often the over-
riding issue and will normally dictate the material of choice. One way to deter-
mine materials cost is by taking the product of the price (on a per-unit mass basis)
and the required mass of material.
Cost considerations for these five remaining candidate materialssteel, aluminum,
and titanium alloys, and two engineering compositesare presented in Table CS1.2.

cost, denoted as ; this parameter is simply the per-unit mass cost of material c

CS1.6 Case Study 1 / Materials Selection for a Torsionally Stressed Cylindrical Shaft
divided by the per-unit mass cost for low-carbon steel, one of the common engineering
materials. The underlying rationale for using is that although the price of a specific
material will vary over time, the price ratio between that material and another will
most likely change more slowly.
Finally, the right-hand column of Table CS1.2 shows the product of and .
This product provides a comparison of the materials on the basis of the cost of
materials for a cylindrical shaft that would not fracture in response to the twisting
moment M
t
. We use this product inasmuch as is proportional to the mass of
material required (Equation CS1.8) and is the relative cost on a per-unit mass basis.
Now the most economical is the 4340 steel, followed by the glass fiberreinforced
composite, the carbon fiberreinforced composite, 2024-T6 aluminum, and the tita-
nium alloy. Thus, when the issue of economics is considered, there is a significant
alteration within the ranking scheme. For example, inasmuch as the carbon
fiberreinforced composite is relatively expensive, it is significantly less desirable;
in other words, the higher cost of this material may not outweigh the enhanced
strength it provides.

CS1.3 OTHER PROPERTY CONSIDERATIONS
AND THE FINAL DECISION
To this point in our materials selection process, we have considered only the strength
of materials. Other properties relative to the performance of the cylindrical shaft may
be importantfor example, stiffness, and, if the shaft rotates, fatigue behavior (Sec-
tions 8.7 and 8.8 of Introduction; Sections 9.9 and 9.10 of Fundamentals). Further-
more, fabrication costs should also be considered; in our analysis, they have been
neglected.
Relative to stiffness, a stiffness-to-mass performance analysis similar to the one
just discussed could be conducted. For this case, the stiffness performance index P
s
is
(CS1.11)
where G is the shear modulus. The appropriate materials selection chart (log G
versus log r) would be used in the preliminary selection process. Subsequently, per-
formance index and per-unit-mass cost data would be collected on specific candi-
date materials; from these analyses, the materials would be ranked on the basis of
stiffness performance and cost.
In deciding on the best material, it may be worthwhile to make a table employing
the results of the various criteria that were used. The tabulation would include, for
all candidate materials, performance index, cost, and so forth for each criterion, as
well as comments relative to any other important considerations. This table puts in
perspective the important issues and facilitates the final decision process.
SUMMARY
An expression for the strength performance index was derived for a torsionally stressed
cylindrical shaft; then, using the appropriate materials selection chart, a preliminary
candidate search was conducted. From the results of this search, several candidate en-
gineering materials were ranked on both strength-per-unit mass and cost bases. Other
factors that are relevant to the decision-making process were also discussed.
