Abstract: Let $Omeg{a}_0$ denote the unit ball of $mathbb{R}^N$ ($Nge2$) centered at the origin. We suppose that $Omeg{a}_0$ contains a core, given by a smaller concentric ball $D_0$, made of a (possibly) different material. We discover that, depending on the relative hardness of the two materials, this radial configuration can either be a local maximizer for the torsional rigidity functional $E$ or a saddle shape. In this paper we consider perturbations that simultaneously act on the boundaries $partial{D}_0$ and $partialOmeg{a}_0$. This gives rise to resonance effects that are not present when $partial{D}_0$ or $partialOmeg{a}_0$ are perturbed in isolation. A detailed analysis of the sign of the second order shape derivative of $E$ is then made possible by employing the use of spherical harmonics.
