{{초안}}
The torsion test is used to determine the torsional strength, stiffness, ductility, and the modulus of elasticity in shear of a material. Fields and Backofen first described the mathematical model for this test in 1957, providing a foundation for understanding the relationship between torsion, shear stress, and shear strain<ref name=":0">{{저널 인용|제목=Determination of strain hardening characteristics by torsion testing|저널=Proceedings of the ASTM|성=Fields, D.S., & Backofen, W.A.|이름=Fields, D.S., & Backofen, W.A.|날짜=1957|출판사=ASTM}}</ref><ref name=":1">{{서적 인용|제목=Mechanical metallurgy|성=Dieter|이름=George Ellwood Dieter, David Bacon|날짜=1976|출판사=New York: McGraw-hill}}</ref>.

== Mathematical Description ==

=== Shear Stress and Strain ===
The basic equations used in torsion testing relate torque (M), the angle of twist (θ), and the material dimensions to shear stress (τ) and strain (γ):

* Shear stress (''τ'') is given by:

<math>\tau = M(3+m+n)/2\pi r^3</math>  where ''r'' is the radius of the material, and ''m'' and ''n'' are constants related to the material properties<ref name=":0" />.
* Shear strain (''γ'') is described by: 

<math>\gamma = r\theta /L</math>  with ''L'' being the length of the material under test<ref name=":0" />.[[파일:Torsionsversuch Skizze.svg|섬네일|Schematic diagram of torsion test]]

=== Relationships and Moduli ===
The torsion test also helps determine the modulus of rigidity ''G'', using the polar moment of inertia ''J'':

''θ''=''ML/JG''<ref name=":0" />

== Specimen Preparation and Test Setup ==

=== Specimen Geometry ===
Typically, specimens are prepared with specific dimensions optimized for uniform stress and strain distribution, often requiring precise machining. The specimens might have a gauge section with a smaller diameter compared to the ends to localize the strain to a specific region.<ref name=":2">{{서적 인용|제목=ASM Handbook: Mechanical Testing and Evolution, ASM International}}</ref>

=== Testing Procedure ===
The specimen is secured at one end, while the other end is twisted gradually until failure. Measurements of torque and angular displacement are taken throughout the test to generate a torque vs. angle curve.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" />

== Data Analysis ==

=== Flow Curve ===
From the torsion test data, a flow curve can be generated showing the relationship between torque and angle of twist. The curve typically displays the work hardening behavior of the material and can indicate points of yield and ultimate strength.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" /><ref name=":2" />

* Dynamic softening behaviors, such as recovery and recrystallization, may be observed depending on the material and conditions of the test.<ref name=":3">{{저널 인용|제목=Dynamic recrystallization behavior of AISI 304 stainless steel|저널=Materials Science and Engineering: A|성=Kim|이름=Sung-Il|성2=Yoo|이름2=Yeon-Chul|url=https://doi.org/10.1016/S0921-5093(01)00917-0|날짜=2001-07|권=311|호=1-2|쪽=108–113|doi=10.1016/s0921-5093(01)00917-0|issn=0921-5093}}</ref>

== Applications ==
Torsion testing is crucial in sectors like automotive and aerospace, where components are often subjected to significant torsional loads during operation. Understanding the torsional properties helps in designing more robust and reliable components.

Torsion tests help in understanding '''the Bauschinger effect''' by enabling the controlled application of reversing shear stresses. By applying a torque in one direction and then the opposite, researchers can observe the changes in material behavior and properties. These tests provide insights into how prior strain influences the stress required to yield the material in the opposite direction.

(Bauschinger Effect: The Bauschinger effect is an important phenomenon observed in materials subjected to cyclic loading, where the material exhibits different yield strengths in tension and subsequent compression. Torsion tests are particularly effective in studying this effect because they can easily apply cyclic torsional loading to a material.)

== Special Considerations ==
Torsion tests are also considered simple shear or pure shear tests, making them particularly useful for generating stress-strain curves at high strains. This characteristic allows for an efficient representation of material behavior under extreme operational conditions<ref name=":3" />.

== Limitations and Considerations ==
Torsion tests are primarily applicable to isotropic, homogeneous materials due to the uniformity assumption in shear stress distribution. The geometry of the specimen also plays a critical role in ensuring accurate measurements.

== Conclusion ==
The torsion test remains a fundamental experimental technique for assessing the mechanical properties of materials under rotational forces. Its ability to simulate real-life service conditions makes it indispensable in material science and engineering.
