Radial Displacement Thin-wall Section (Open Ended) Formula

\( \Delta_r \;=\;   \dfrac{  p \cdot r^2 }{ \lambda \cdot t  }\) 
 Symbol English Metric
\( \Delta_r \) = Radius Change \( in \) \( mm \)
\( p \) = Pressure Under Consideration \(lbf\;/\;in^2\) \(Pa\)
\( r \) = Radius to Point of Intrest \( in \) \( mm \)
\( \lambda \)  (Greek symbol lambda) = Elastic Modulus \(lbf\;/\;in^2\) \(Pa\)
\( t \) = Wall Thickness \( in \) \( mm \)
