Calculation

Polar moment of inertia

$$K=a\cdot b^3\cdot\left[\cfrac{16}{3}-3.36\cdot\cfrac{b}{a}\cdot\left(1-\cfrac{b^4}{12\cdot a^4}\right)\right]$$

Angle of twist

$$θ=\cfrac{T\cdot 10^3\cdot L}{K\cdot G}$$

Torsion stress

$$τ_{max}=\cfrac{3\cdot10^3\cdot T}{8\cdot a\cdot b^2}\cdot\left[1+0.6095\cdot\cfrac{b}{a}+0.8865\cdot\left(\cfrac{b}{a}\right)^2-1.8023\cdot\left(\cfrac{b}{a}\right)^3+0.91\cdot\left(\cfrac{b}{a}\right)^4\right]$$

Requirements

$$ b\le a $$
