    This document is from Wikipedia and lists the area moments of inertia for various shapes. It provides the area moment of inertia formula for common shapes like circles, rectangles, triangles, and semicircles. It notes that the area moment of inertia has units of length to the fourth power and should not be confused with mass moment of inertia. The list also references the parallel axis theorem which can be used to determine the area moment of inertia for a rigid body about any axis.

    List of moment of areas


    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    The following is a list of area moments of inertia. The area moment of inertia or second moment of area has a unit of dimension length4, and should not be confused with the mass moment of inertia. If the piece is thin, however, the mass moment of inertia equals the areal density times the area moment of inertia. Each is with respect to a horizontal axis through the centroid of the given shape, unless otherwise specified.

    The result is valid for both a horizontal and a vertical axis through the centroid, and therefore is also valid for an axis with arbitrary direction that passes through the origin.

    Any plane region with a known area moment of inertia for a parallel axis. (Main Article parallel axis theorem)

    This can be used to determine the second moment of area of a rigid body about any axis, given the body's moment of inertia about a parallel axis through the object's centre of mass and the perpendicular distance (r) between the axes.
