1. A shaft assembly, comprising:
a hollow shaft with an axis of rotation; and
a hub body which is connected to the hollow shaft in a force locking manner;
wherein the hollow shaft, viewed in cross-section, includes a circumferentially closed wall with a plurality of circumferentially distributed support portions that are in abutting contact with the hub body, and with spring portions spaced from an inner circumferential face of the hub body;
wherein inner surface regions of the spring portions lie on a smaller radius around the axis of rotation than inner surface regions of the support portions; and
wherein the hollow shaft is configured so as to have a radial spring travel for which the following applies:
wherein:
s3 is the radial spring travel,
R3max is a maximum radius of the shaft in an unmounted condition,
R3min is a maximum radius of the shaft in a maximum radial-elastic deflected state,
D3a is twice a maximum radius of the shaft in the unmounted condition,
E is a modulus of elasticity of the shaft,
A is a cross-sectional area of the shaft,
μ is a transverse contraction coefficient of the shaft, and
Rp0,2 is a yield strength of the shaft material.
