Torsional Vibration
of Shafts
The Figure shows a non-uniform
shaft subjected to external
torque f(x,t) per unit length.
(*)
where Mt(x,t) is the twisting moment
G is the shear modulus
GJ is the torsional stiffness
J(x) is the polar moment of inertia of the cross section for a circular section

Torsional Vibration
of a Shaft
If the mass polar moment of inertia of the shaft per unit length is
I0 , Inertia torque acting on an element of length dx becomes
If external torque f(x,t) acts on the shaft per unit length, the
application of Newton’s second law yields the EOM
By expressing dMt as
and using Eq. (*), the forced torsional vibration equation for a
non-uniform shaft can

If the shaft is given an initial angular displacement and
angular velocity at t = 0 , the initial conditions can be
stated as:

Equation can be expressed as (*)
The solution of Eq. (*), and thus the natural frequencies of the
system, can be obtained as in the case of Example # 04 of the
previous Lecture.

By writing
Disregarding terms involving 2nd powers in dx, Eqs. (*) and (**) can be written
as
(**)
By using the relation then, the above Eqs. (*) and (**) becomes:
where E is the Young’s modulus of elasticity and I(x) is the moment of inertia of
the beam cross-section about the y-axis.

For any beam, there will be an infinite number of normal modes with
one natural frequency associated with each normal mode.

The RHS of the above Equation reaches zero for any combination
of free, fixed, or simply supported end conditions.
At free end, the bending moment and shear force are zero:
At a simply supported end, the bending moment and deflection are zero:
