A steel shaft of AISI C1015 as rolled has power and speed of 120 Hp and 700
rpm, respectively. What would be its diameter if it is mild shock?

Given:
P = 120 Hp
N = 700 rpm
Material Specification:

σ y = 45.5 ksi
Factor of Safety:
Ductile, mild shock, one direction
Based on yield strength

8 ft?

Given:
P = 50 Hp
N = 605 rpm
ϴ = 2.5o
L = 8 ft
Deformation Failure:
