Torsion refers to twisting of a straight member under the action of a turning moment or torque which tends to produce a rotation about the longitudinal axis. In workshops and factories, a turning force is always applied to transmit energy by rotation. This turning force is applied to the rim of a pulley, keyed to the shaft or at any other suitable point at some distance from the axis of the shaft. This paper deals with the reliability analysis of the shafts subjected to torsion, when shear stress follows the different distributions. The reliability of a shaft subjected to torsion has been compared with Lindley, Weibull, Exponential and Rayleigh distributions.
