ABSTRACT:
Embodiments of shaft torque profiling apparatuses and methods of use are generally described herein. In one embodiment, a method for determining the torsional stiffness of a least a portion of a shaft comprises: immobilizing a first portion of the shaft; immobilizing a second portion of the shaft to define a first region between the first portion and the second portion; rotating a first portion of the first region about an axis of the shaft; and measuring a rotation of the first portion of the first region. Other embodiments herein may be described and claimed.
