33.01 THIN-WALLED HOLLOW SHAFTS UNDER TORSION Note: we used the concept of shear flow to analyze the distribution of
shearing stresses in non-circular thin-walled hollow shafts. However,
Torsional Shear Stress, τ while the shear flow in a hollow shaft (under torque) is constant, the
q shear flow in a member under a transverse loading is NOT.
