blamocur replied to the thread Help with understanding this parameter.I meant to ask for the formula for I, but I've found it online since then. And yes, y seems to be the same as d, which you use for the... -
blamocur replied to the thread Help with understanding this parameter.What is the formula for y ? Is y the same as d? If not, how is it different? Thanks.

blamocur replied to the thread Help with understanding this parameter.I am still confused about 2 things: to which point is the force F applied (I am guessing the top of the mast) where is h measured from...

TTygra replied to the thread Help with understanding this parameter.Hi @blamocur, The formula for bending stress is: \sigma = \frac{M}{I}y Where I is the second moment of area of the section, and y is...
