This paper examines the combination of radial deformation with torsion for a circular cylindrical tube composed of a transversely isotropic hyperelastic material subject to finite deformation swelling. The stored energy function involves separate matrix and fiber contributions such that the fiber contribution is minimized when the fiber direction is at a natural length. This natural length is not affected by the swelling. Hence swelling preferentially expands directions that are orthogonal to the fiber. The swelling itself is described via a swelling field that prescribes the local free volume at each location in the body. Such a treatment is a relatively simple generalization of the conventional incompressible theory. The direction of transverse isotropy associated with the fiber reinforcement is described by a helical winding about the tube axis. The swelling induced preferential expansion orthogonal to this direction induces the torsional aspect of the deformation. For a specific class of strain energy functions we find that the twist increases with swelling and approaches a limiting asymptotic value as the swelling becomes large. The fibers reorient such that fibers at the inner portion of the tube assume a more circumferential orientation whereas, at least for small and moderate swelling, the fibers in the outer portion of the tube assume a more axial orientation. For large swelling the fibers in the outer portion of the tube reorient beyond the axial orientation, and so are described by helices with orientation in the opposite sense to that in the reference configuration.
