10. A solid circular shaft made of steel Fe 620 (Sut = 620 N/mm2 and Syt = 380 N/mm2) is
subjected to an alternating torsional moment, which varies from –200 N-m to + 400 N-m.
The shaft is ground and the expected reliability is 90%. Neglecting stress concentration,
Calculate the shaft diameter for infinite life. The factor of safety is 2. Use the distortion-
energy theory of failure.
