A rotor-shaft assembly which includes a ceramic, solid hubbed turbine rotor having an integral stub shaft brazed within one end of a generally cylindrically shaped sleeve member. A metal shaft is either brazed or cold press fitted within the other end of the sleeve member in a torque transmitting relationship. The stub shaft is formed with an annular relief therearound in order to reduce the compressive forces acting on the stub shaft by the sleeve member. |
