Abstract

The present research argues that the shear stress of shaft in torsion is not a true stress but an equivalent stress, based on the phenomena that the stress disproves the plane assumption, that the body part in torsion is unable to maintain equilibrium, and that shear stress on the longitudinal section drawn from reciprocal theorem is not only self-contradictory, but also in conflict with Newton's third law. Namely, the angle strain generated by torque equals that produced by shear stress. The above phenomena are caused by equivalent stresses.
