iv. If the hole diameter reduced to 75%, 50% and 25%, respectively, compute the K factor and
compare the factor respect to the hole diameter reduction. Discussed about the hole
diameter effect on stress concentration due to the loading.

Theoretically, when the hole diameter is decreased, the stress concentration will be less.
However in simulation, hole diameter with 12.5 mm dimensions, has the highest stress
concentration.
v. If the plate is without the hole and applied with the same amount of tension load at the plate end
face, what is the consequence behaviour compare to the initial problem.
Without the hole, the maximum normal stress is much lower compared to the initial
problem which yielding maximum normal stress of 4.332 x 10^-4 MPa .
vi. If the plate total length increased to 150% and two holes with diameter of d, distance
between center is c and the hole center is distance from the plate center of c/2, determine the
normal stress (maximum and minimum) and K factor. Compare and discuss the prediction result
with the initial problem.

By comparing with the initial problem, the maximum normal stress for 2 holes model is
slightly higher. However the minimum normal stress of 2 holes model is a lot lower
compared to the initial problem.

1. Pre-processing
Both models have the same boundary condition, fixed geometry at one end, and applying
1200 Nm Torque at the other end.
Intermediate mesh is applied to both models with the following mesh details.
Shaft Hollow Shaft
2. Solution
3. Post-processing
The following figure shows the result of shear stress in Y direction on Y-Z plane.
For Shaft:
= 4.17 107
= 4.155 107
For Hollow-shaft:
= 4.125 107
= 4.134 107
4. Conclusion
From the result obtained, the value for max shear stress and min shear stress for shaft and
hollow-shaft is almost the same. Hence, justifying the calculation made.
1. Pre-processing
With the dimensions of: 2 m height, 12.5 mm web thickness, and H = 120mm.
