Radial Stress Thin-wall Section Formula

\( \sigma_r \;=\;  p \; r \;/\; 10 \; t  \)     (Radial Stress Thin-wall Section)

\( p \;=\; \sigma_r \; 10 \; t \;/\; r  \) 

\( r \;=\; \sigma_r \; 10 \; t \;/\; p  \) 

\( t \;=\; p \; r \;/\; \sigma_r \; 10  \) 

 Symbol English Metric
\( \sigma_r \)  (Greek symbol sigma) = Radius Stress \(lbf\;/\;in^2\) \(Pa\)
\( p \) = Pressure Under Consideration \(lbf\;/\;in^2\) \(Pa\)
\( r \) = Radius to Point of Intrest \(in\) \(mm\)
\( t \)  (Greek symbol sigma) = Wall Thickness \(in \) \(mm\)
