This is one of the SEED curriculum engineering design guides. SEED (Sharing Experience in Engineering Design) is an organisation of teachers of design in tertiary education.
This guide gives information on how to design a shaft for strength and rigidity. It gives details on how to: determine the loads on the shaft; choose provisional dimensions for the shaft; identify critical sections; calculate internal forces and moments; introduce safety factor; choose material; calculate deflection; compare factored stresses with strength of material; specify shaft.
References are also provided.
