How to simulate torsion of cylinder in ANSYS?

I want to model torsion of a homogeneous hollow cylinder in ANSYS. I changed to cylindric coordinate system also. But each time I run the program  the result is that of bending. I have attached the mac file and output file for reference. Please advise.

Short and long Beam classification

I want to understand how beams are classified in terms of short and long beams. What is the criteria to classify them. Please suggest any reference.

 

TIA 

ANSYS HELP NEEDED

I am analysing a beam made of composite material in ANSYS. loding is axial and is applied on the end face. Other end is fixed. I want the deformed face  to be parallel to undformed face. no out of plane warping or deformation. How to do it ? I know applying foce and displacement constraints simultaneously is not possible(and is not wise) but is there a way  ?

cosserat beam theory

I want to understand cosserat beam theory. Please suggest the some reading material related to it.

TIA 

What is the difference between RVE and Unit Cell ?

I have been working in composites for sometime now. In the literature I have found that the words  "Representative Volume Element" (RVE) and "Unit Cell" (UC)  are  used frequently.  Some  authors treat them differently and some treat them  same. I am little bit confused can anyone PLEASE clarify the situation or suggest some good papers to read.

 

Thanks In Advance.
