Plot the shear flow distribution around the section, with values in terms of S and a

Fig. 8 shows the regular hexagonal cross-section of a thin-walled beam of sides ‘a’ and constant wall thickness t. The beam is subjected to a transverse shear force S, its line of action being along a side of the hexagon, as shown. Find the rate of twist of the beam in terms oft, a, S and the shear modulus G. Plot the shear flow distribution around the section, with values in terms of S and a

A direct shear test is conducted on a large specimen of dry sand (square cross section with following dimensions: 7.5 cm x 7.5 cm x 3.0 cm [height], Mass = 271.0 g) with a normal stress of 500 kPa. Failure occurred when the horizontal force was 1.96 kN. For the same sand, tests were also conducted to determine the specific gravity and the maximum and minimum void ratios. These tests yielded the following results: Gs= 2.65, emax=0.80, emin = 0.45....
