Tangential Force at End of Each Arm of Pulley given Torque Transmitted by Pulley

Go Tangential Force at End of Each Pulley Arm = Torque Transmitted by Pulley/(Radius of Rim of Pulley*(Number of Arms in Pulley/2))

Radius of Rim of Pulley given Torque Transmitted by Pulley

Go Radius of Rim of Pulley = Torque Transmitted by Pulley/(Tangential Force at End of Each Pulley Arm*(Number of Arms in Pulley/2))

Number of Arms of Pulley given Torque Transmitted by Pulley

Go Number of Arms in Pulley = 2*Torque Transmitted by Pulley/(Tangential Force at End of Each Pulley Arm*Radius of Rim of Pulley)

Torque Transmitted by Pulley

Go Torque Transmitted by Pulley = Tangential Force at End of Each Pulley Arm*Radius of Rim of Pulley*(Number of Arms in Pulley/2)

Minor Axis of Elliptical Cross-Section of Pulley's Arm given Torque and Bending Stress Formula

Minor Axis of Pulley Arm = (16*Torque Transmitted by Pulley/(pi*Number of Arms in Pulley*Bending stress in pulley's arm))^(1/3)
a = (16*M_t/(pi*N_pu*σ_b))^(1/3)

What is Bending Stress?

Bending stress is the normal stress that an object encounters when it is subjected to a large load at a particular point that causes the object to bend and become fatigued. Bending stress occurs when operating industrial equipment and in concrete and metallic structures when they are subjected to a tensile load.
