"Design of Power Transmission Shafts" NASA #1123 by Loewenthall http://nt
RE: Wanted: technical reference for shafts
-> sizing to carry loads
-> sizing to handle fatigue life
-> management of stress concentrations
-> surface finishes
-> diameter changes
-> keyways, etc, to carry torque loads
-> materials
-> surface and heat treatments
I had to design a Power Transmission shaft and pulled out my copy of Shigley's Machine Design where it talks about sophisticated stress analysis for sizing considerations, fatigue analysis, etc. But not machining finishes or coatings. Then I looked into my Machinery's Handbook and was shocked to discover that their "industy standard" analysis was very fat and quick....just oversize everything to "standard" shaft sizes to fit "standard" bearing sizes.
Now I use Machinery's Handbook because it's simpler, faster.

The MitCalc software has a rental option and you can purchase individual modules
relatively cheap.
