This is true whether the shaft is rotating (e.g. drives shaft on engines,
motors & turbines) or stationary (bolt/screw)
This torque makes the shaft twist and or end rotates relative to other
inducing shear stress on any cross section
The diagram show a shaft fixed at one end and twisted at the other end due to action of a torque T

Hollow shaft
NON-UNIFORM TORSION
Uniform/Pure torsion torsion of prismatic bar subjected to torques
acting only at the ends
Non-uniform torsion the bar need not be prismatic and the applied
torque may act anywhere along the axis of bar

Limitations
Analyses described valid for bar made of linearly elastic materials
Circular cross sections (Solid /hollow)
Stresses determined from the torsion formula valid in region of the bar
away from stress concentrations (diameter changes abruptly/concentrated
torque applied
For the case above, Angle of twist still valid
Changes in diameter is are small and gradually (angle of taper max 10o)
