Second Moment of Area of a Circle Sector

 

Second Moment of Area of a Circle Sector formulas

\( I_{x} \;=\;   \dfrac{ r^4 }{ 4} \cdot  \left( \Delta - \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot sin( 2 \cdot \Delta )  \right)   \) 

\( I_{y} \;=\;    \dfrac{ r^4 }{ 4} \cdot  \left( \Delta + \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot sin( 2 \cdot \Delta )  \right)           -   \left(  \dfrac{ 4 \cdot r^4 }{ 9 \cdot \Delta } \cdot sin^2 ( \Delta ) \right)  \) 

\( I_{x1} \;=\;   I_x  +  r^4 \cdot \Delta \cdot sin^2 (\Delta) \) 

\( I_{y1} \;=\;   \dfrac{ r^4 }{ 4} \cdot  \left( \Delta + \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot sin( 2 \cdot \Delta )  \right)   \)
