 Area moment of inertia Comment

I x = Iy = Iz = (π/4)*r^ 4 I z is the Polar moment of inertia.

For thin tubes, r ≡ r 1 ≈ r 2 and r 2 ≡ r 1 + t . So,

Ix = Iy = Iz = (π/4)*( r 2^ 4 − r 1^ 4 ) for a thin tube, I x = I y ≈ π* r^3* t , Iz is the
polar moment of Inertia

I x = ( θ − sin θ )*( r^4/ 8) This formula is valid only for 0 ≤ θ

I x = ( π/ 8) − 8/( 9*π ))* r^4 ≈ 0.1098* r^ 4

I y = ( π*r ^4)/ 8

I x: This is a consequence of the parallel axis

theorem and the fact that the distance
Ix = Iy = ( π*r ^4)/ 8 between the x axes of the previous one and this
one is (4*r)/(3*π)
 Ix = Iy = π*r ^4/ 16

This is a consequence of the parallel axis

I x = Iy = (π/16 − 4/(9*π))/ r^ 4 ≈ 0.0549 *r^4 theorem and the fact that the distance
between these two axes is 4*r/(3*π)

I x = (π/ 4)*a*b^3

I y = (π/ 4)*a^3*b

I x = b* h^3/ 12

I y = b^3* h/ 12

I x = b* h^3/ 3

This is a result from the parallel axis theorem

I y = b^3* h/ 3

I x = b*h^3 /36
 I y = b^3 * h /36

I x = b *h^ 3 /12

This is a consequence of the parallel axis

theorem

I y = b^3 *h /12

I x = I y =(( t*( 5*L^2 − 5*L *t + t^ 2 )* ( L^ 2 − L*

t + t^ 2 ))/ (12* ( 2*L − t )

I ( x y ) = (L ^2 *t* ( L − t )^2)) /(4*( t − 2 L ))

I ( x y ) is the often unused product of inertia,
used to define inertia with a rotated axis
I a = t*( 2 L − t ) ( 2*L^2 − 2* L* t + t^ 2 ))/ 12

I b = t *( 2*L^ 4 − 4* L^3 * t + 8* L^ 2* t^ 2 − 6*
L* t^ 3 + t^ 4 ) /(12*( 2*L − t ))
