Abstract
In this paper, a new formula for the generalized twist is presented which is valid for linearly elastic, nonhomogeneous and anisotropic beams of solid cross section. The generalized twist is expressed in terms of axial component of the infinitesimal rotation vector weighted by the stress function of Saint-Venant's torsional problem. Characterization of a torsion-free bending problem is also presented by the use of the generalized twist.
