Shear Force in Circular Section Formula Elements

Variables
Shear Force on Beam
Shear Force on Beam is the force which causes shear deformation to occur in the shear plane.
Symbol: Fs
Measurement: ForceUnit: kN
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Shear Stress in Beam
Shear Stress in Beam is force tending to cause deformation of a material by slippage along a plane or planes parallel to the imposed stress.
Symbol: 𝜏beam
Measurement: PressureUnit: MPa
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Moment of Inertia of Area of Section
Moment of Inertia of Area of Section is a geometric property that quantifies how a cross-sectional area is distributed relative to an axis.
Symbol: I
Measurement: Second Moment of AreaUnit: m⁴
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Width of Beam Section
Width of Beam Section is the width of the rectangular cross-section of the beam parallel to the axis in consideration.
Symbol: B
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Radius of Circular Section
Radius of Circular Section is the distance from the center of a circle to any point on its boundary, it represent the characteristic size of a circular cross-section in various applications.
Symbol: r
