The Boundary Integral Equation Method for Torsion of an Inhomogeneous Variable Diameter Shaft

Abstract

dc:description

A Boundary Integral Equation (BIE) formulation is developed which is capable of analyzing the torsion of a variable diameter shaft with an axisymmetric shear modulus in a particular form. The governing differential equation for this problem is the equation of the Generalized Bi-axially Symmetric Potential Theory (GBSPT), and its fundamental solution can be obtained by considering the "ring of potential". Piecewise-quadratic shape functions are used for the approximations of the functions and the boundary. Gaussian quadrature with four Gaussian points are used for the numerical integration.
