A shaft is connected to a tube via a rubber insert that is glued to each member as shown. On cylindrical surfaces of the rubber connector concentric with the shaft, what is the shear stress as a function of r, the radius of cylindrical surface? What is the normal stress on cross-section ofthe
tube below the rubber connector?

Evaluate directly the invariants Jr, Jz, J:. Determine the principal stresses and the conesponding principal directions. Show that the diagonal form of the stress tensor yields the same values for the stress invariants.

For the state of stress in Problem no. 6, determine the maximum shear stress at that point and the direction of the plane on which it acts. Also find the value of the octahedral shear stress at that point.
