Abstract – The term torsion describes how a straight part will twist when subjected to a turning moment or torque that has the tendency to cause a rotation about the longitudinal axis. In order to transmit energy by rotation, a turning force is always used in workshops and factories. This rotating force is applied to the pulley's rim, a point that is keyed to the shaft, or any other suitable location that is spaced from the shaft's axis. The reliability analysis of the shafts subjected to torsion and torque conveyed by a hollow or solid circular shaft when shear stress has an exponential distribution is presented in this work.
Keywords Reliability, shear stress, exponential distribution, circular solid shaft, hollow circular shaft.

INTRODUCTION
The shaft is the major part of the power transmission system that requires careful design for the machine to operate effectively. The spinning part that transfers electricity from one location to another is the shaft. The most important part of practically every mechanical machine and system is the shaft. Anil Misra et al. [1], discussed with the view of developing methods for reliability based design, the finite difference technique was combined with the Monte-Carlo simulation method to create a probabilistic loaddisplacement analysis. The Monte Carlo simulation method was used, in lieu of other closed-form probabilistic techniques, due to the complexity of the loaddisplacement analysis. Dr. Edward E. Osakue et al. [2] studied a design verification study of three shafts loaded in bending and torsion was conducted based on probabilistic approach using Gerber failure rule. The probabilistic model parameters like mean and variance values to estimate expected design results while then reliability of the design is evaluated using the
coefficients of variation or covariance of the design parameters. The equations for the covariance of strength and stress parameters were developed using sensitivity analysis based on first order Taylor series expansion of design relationships. Dr R. K. Bansal [3] and R. S. Khurmi [7] discussed shear stress produced in a circular shaft subjected to torsion, Torque transmitted by a circular solid shaft and a hollow circular shaft. E. Balagurusamy [4] discussed stress dependent hazard models, the failure rate of almost all components is stress dependent. K. C. Kapur and L. R. Lamberson [5] discussed design of a shaft subjected to torsion, when a shaft is subjected to a torque a shearing stress is produced in the shaft. The shear stress varies from zero in the axis to a maximum at the outside surface of the shaft. P. Hari Prasad et al. [6] studied eccentricity of symmetrical column in a widely varying range of values. The increase in eccentricity was not reflective of the increase in reliability. T. S. Uma Maheswari et al. [8] Reliability analysis of unsymmetrical columns subjected to eccentric load for stress follow exponential distribution has been obtained.

TORSION OF SHAFTS
The shaft is said to be in torsion when equal and opposing torques are applied to the shaft's two ends. The torque is calculated by multiplying the force (tangential to the shaft ends) by the shaft's radius. The shaft experiences a twisting moment as a result of the torques applied at the two ends. The material of the shaft is subjected to shear loads and strains as a result.

CONCLUSION
The torsion reliability of a circular shaft under exponentially distributed shear stress has been calculated. It has been determined if a hollow or solid circular shaft will reliably transmit torque. It has been found that the shaft's reliability reduces with increasing time, twisting moment, and stiffness modulus, as well as with decreasing external diameter and shaft length. Shaft reliability rises with decreasing interior diameter and total torque.
