How to Evaluate Central Deflection of Leaf Spring?

Central Deflection of Leaf Spring evaluator uses Deflection of Centre of Leaf Spring = (Span of Spring^2)/(8*Radius of Plate) to evaluate the Deflection of Centre of Leaf Spring, The Central deflection of leaf spring formula is defined as the movement of the spring, either by applying force to it or removing force from it. In the case of torsion springs, deflection is the movement of the torsion arms (legs), again caused by applying or removing force (load). Deflection of Centre of Leaf Spring is denoted by δ symbol.

How to evaluate Central Deflection of Leaf Spring using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Central Deflection of Leaf Spring, enter Span of Spring (l) & Radius of Plate (R) and hit the calculate button.
