On a Newly Discovered Relation between the Tenacity of Metals and their Resistance to Torsion
The determination of the nature of the relation which exists between the resistances of the metals to torsion and to tension, is a matter of both interest and importance to the engineer, and has also great importance as bearing upon the theory of the resistance of materials. It has always been assumed by the engineer and the physicist that there exists a constant relation between these two forms of molecular resistance, and that the resistance of a homogeneous material to rupture or to distortion by tension could be predicated upon the results of experiments determining its resistance to torsion, and that the modulus, or measure, of the latter could be derived from that obtained for the former by multiplying by a constant co-efficient, which has a certain value ascertainable by experiment for every case.
