What is Torsional Moment?
Torsion is the twisting of a beam under the action of a torque (twisting moment). It is systematically applied to screws, nuts, axles, drive shafts etc, and is also generated more randomly under service conditions in car bodies, boat hulls, aircraft fuselages, bridges, springs and many other structures and components.
How to Calculate Equivalent Torsional Moment?
Equivalent Torsional Moment calculator uses Equivalent Torsion Moment = sqrt(Bending Moment^(2)+Torque Exerted on Wheel^(2)) to calculate the Equivalent Torsion Moment, The Equivalent Torsional Moment is defined as twisting moment which, if acting alone, would produce in a circular shaft a shear stress of the same magnitude as the shear stress produced by a given twisting moment and a given bending moment acting simultaneously. Equivalent Torsion Moment is denoted by E.T.M symbol.
How to calculate Equivalent Torsional Moment using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Equivalent Torsional Moment, enter Bending Moment (Mb) & Torque Exerted on Wheel (τ) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Equivalent Torsional Moment calculation can be explained with given input values -> 72.86288 = sqrt(53^(2)+50^(2)).
