Introduction
Bodies like rings, circular discs, cylinders, etc. are often present
in machines involving rotational movement. Large magnitudes
of centrifugal forces arise in these bodies due to the high
rotation speeds under which the machines operate. The
centrifugal forces give rise to stresses that are distributed
symmetrically about the axes of rotation. The aim of this
chapter is the study of these stresses, assuming uniform
density of the material from which the circular members (rings,
discs, cylinders) are made.
I - ROTATING RING
Figure 1 shows a thin ring rotating about its centre of gravity
located at 0.

As a result of rotation, each and every element of the ring, like
element LMPQ, will experience centrifugal (or inertia) force JF
c

which will tend to expand the ring radially outwards. This will
in turn induce the circumferential (hoop) stress o
c
in the ring.
K.A. | MECH3001Y | Mechanics of Materials & Machines III Page | 4

The hoop stress is tensile in nature. The hoop stress can be
evaluated by setting a number of assumptions and using the
equilibrium conditions.
Assumptions
In order to evaluate the hoop stress, the following assumptions
are made:
The circumferential stress on the area of the cross-section of
the ring is uniform.
The dimensions of the cross-section of the ring are small as
compared to its mean radius.
The constraining effect of spokes is negligible.

Volume of small element LMPQ per unit length = r. J0. t

Hence, the centrifugal force acting on the element,

JF
C
= p (r. J0. t)

[1]

JF
C
= p (r. J0. t)

[2]

The vertical component of the elemental force JF

is given by:

The horizontal component of JF
C
will be cancelled when we
consider another small element LMPQ in quadrant number 2
at an angle 0. However, this 2
nd
element LMPQ will
contribute an additional component of centrifugal force in the
vertical direction.
Therefore, the total vertical component of centrifugal force (or
the bursting force across the horizontal diameter XX is given by

II - THIN ROTATING
A simplified model for a component such as a ga
is a uniform thin disc which, when rotating at constant velocity,
is subjected to stresses induced by centri
problem involving symmetrical
axis. If the disc is thin in section, then it
stresses are set up. The radial and hoop stresses are constant
through the thickness, and there is no stress in the direction of
the axis of rotation.
A circular disc of inner radius
about its axis. Let us assume that the disc is of uniform
thickness.

Let us now consider circumferential and radial strains.
When the disc is rotating at high speed, let the disc dimensions
change such that r becomes (r + u) and (r + Jr) becomes
(r +Jr + u(r + Jr)).
Therefore, circumferential strain e
C
is given by

e
C
=
2n(r +u) -2nr
2nr

r

[10]
and the radial strain e

is given by

for the hoop (circumferential) stress and the radial stress.

III - ROTATING LONG CYLINDERS
The analysis of rotating long cylinders is similar to that of thin
discs, the only difference being that the length of the cylinder
along the axis is large compared to the radius. It follows that in
addition to the hoop and radial stresses, axial stress along the
length of the cylinder has to be taken into consideration.
Longitudinal strain is assumed to be constant.
Let,
o

= roJiol strcss
o
C
= circumcrcntiol strcss
o
I
= longituJinol (or oxiol) strcss
Let these stresses (o

, o
C
, o

) act on any element of a section
of the cylinder of radius r (Fig. 2(b)).
Then, radial strain,

expressions for the hoop (circumferential) stress, the
longitudinal stress and the radial stress.

the governing equations for a rotating cylinder. The integration
