9.1 Moments of Inertia
The moment of inertia is geometric property of an area that is used to determine the strength
of a structural member.it is sometimes referred to as the second moment of the area about an
axis.

By definition, the moments of inertia of a differential area about the x and y axis are:-

dIx = y 2 dA dIY = x 2 dA

For the entire area A the moments of inertia are determined by integration;

Ix = ∫ y 2 dA Iy = ∫ x 2 dA
A A

9.2 Polar Moment of Inertia


The moment of inertia of dA about the pole O or z axis is referred as the polar moment.it is
defined as:-

dJO = r 2 dA ,

where r is the perpendicular distance from the pole(z axis) to the element dA

For the entire area the polar moment of inertia is:-

JO = ∫ r 2 dA = Ix + Iy
A

9.3 Parallel Axis Theorem for an Area
The parallel axis theorem can be used to find the moment of inertia of an area about any axis
that is parallel to an axis passing through the centroid and about which the moment of inertia
is known.

To develop this theorem, we will consider finding the moment of inertia of the shaded area
shown above about the x axis, the moment of inertia of dA about the x axis is

dIx = (ý + dy)2 dA

For the entire area

𝐼𝑥 = ∫ (𝑦́ + 𝑑𝑦)2 𝑑𝐴
𝐴

𝐼𝑥 = ∫ 𝑦́ 2 𝑑𝐴 + 2𝑑𝑦 ∫ 𝑦́ 𝑑𝐴 + 𝑑𝑦 2 ∫ 𝑑𝐴
𝐴 𝐴 𝐴

The first integral represents the moment of inertia about the centroidal axis 𝐼𝑥́

The second integral is zero

The third integral represent the total area.

Therefore;

𝐼𝑥 = 𝐼𝑥́ + 𝐴𝑑𝑦 2

A similar expressions can be written

𝐼𝑦 = 𝐼𝑦́ + 𝐴𝑑𝑥 2

𝐽𝑂 = 𝐽𝐶 + 𝐴𝑑 2

The form of each of these equations states that the moment of inertia for an area about an
axis is equal to its moment of inertia about a parallel axis passing through the area centroid
plus the product of the area and the square of the perpendicular distance between the axes.

9.4 Radius of Gyration of an Area


Provided the areas and moments of inertia are known, the radii of gyration are determined
from the formulas;

k𝑦 = √

9.5 Moment of Inertia for Composite Areas.
A composite area consists of a series of simpler parts or shapes such as rectangle, triangle
and circles. Provided the moment of inertia of each of these parts is known or can be
determined about a common axis, then the moment of inertia for the composite area about
this axis equals the algebraic sum of the moments of inertia for all its parts.

Procedure for Analysis


The moment of inertia for a composite area about a reference axis can be determined using
the following steps:-

1. Using a sketch, divided the area into its composite parts and indicates the perpendicular
distance from the centroid of each part to the reference axis.

2.If the centroidal axis for each part does not coincode with the reference axis, the parallel
axis theorem, should be used to determine the moment of inertia about the reference axis

3. The moment of inertia of entire area about the reference axis is determined by the
summing the results of its composite parts about this axis.

4. If a composite part has an empty region(hole),its moment of inertia is found by subtracting


the moment of inertia of this region from the moment of inertia of the entire part including
the region.
