The torsion constant, often denoted by \( k_t \) or sometimes \( G \), is a measure of a material's resistance to twisting or torsional deformation. It is particularly relevant in the context of materials science and mechanical engineering. In terms of its applications, the torsion constant is typically used to describe how a cylindrical or prismatic object (like a rod or beam) behaves under torsional load.
