  2. List of moments of inertia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_moments_of_inertia

    This expression assumes that the shell thickness is negligible. It is a special case of the thick-walled cylindrical tube for r 1 = r 2. Also, a point mass m at the end of a rod of length r has this same moment of inertia and the value r is called the radius of gyration. [1]

  3. Moment of inertia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_of_inertia

    The moment of inertia of the compound pendulum is now obtained by adding the moment of inertia of the rod and the disc around the pivot point as, =, + +, + (+), where is the length of the pendulum. Notice that the parallel axis theorem is used to shift the moment of inertia from the center of mass to the pivot point of the pendulum.

  4. List of second moments of area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_second_moments_of_area

    The second moment of area, also known as area moment of inertia, is a geometrical property of an area which reflects how its points are distributed with respect to an arbitrary axis. The unit of dimension of the second moment of area is length to fourth power, L 4, and should not be confused with the mass moment of inertia.

  5. Second polar moment of area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_polar_moment_of_area

    The second polar moment of area, also known (incorrectly, colloquially) as "polar moment of inertia" or even "moment of inertia", is a quantity used to describe resistance to torsional deformation (), in objects (or segments of an object) with an invariant cross-section and no significant warping or out-of-plane deformation. [1]

  6. Second moment of area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_moment_of_area

    In physics, moment of inertia is strictly the second moment of mass with respect to distance from an axis: =, where r is the distance to some potential rotation axis, and the integral is over all the infinitesimal elements of mass, dm, in a three-dimensional space occupied by an object Q. The MOI, in this sense, is the analog of mass for ...

  7. Flywheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flywheel

    The moment of inertia is a measure of resistance to torque applied on a spinning object (i.e. the higher the moment of inertia, the slower it will accelerate when a given torque is applied). The moment of inertia can be calculated for cylindrical shapes using mass ( m {\textstyle m} ) and radius ( r {\displaystyle r} ).

  8. Section modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_modulus

    In solid mechanics and structural engineering, section modulus is a geometric property of a given cross-section used in the design of beams or flexural members.Other geometric properties used in design include: area for tension and shear, radius of gyration for compression, and second moment of area and polar second moment of area for stiffness.

    = area moment of inertia of the cross section of the rod, l k {\displaystyle {l \over k}} = slenderness ratio. Euler's equation is useful in situations such as an ideal pinned-pinned column, or in cases in which the effective length can be used to adjust the existing formula (ie.
