Determine the shear center for the semicircular thinwalled c
Determine the shear center for the semicircular thin-walled cross section as show. The dimensions include: r throughout the calculation with the units of [mm] for the shear center distance. 50 mm, t- 5 mm and P 100 KN. Use 3 significant figures Answer.
Solution
Shear center = 4R/Pi
Where R = inside radius of the semi circular thin wall cross section.
=4*50/3.14
=63.69 mm
