Tire Traction Breakaway Equation and Calculator |
Tire Traction Breakaway Equation and Calculator Traction, or tractive force, is the force used to generate motion between a body and a tangential surface, through the use of dry friction, though the use of shear force of the surface is also commonly used. |

Torsional Deflection of Shaft |
In solid mechanics, torsion is the twisting of an object due to an applied torque. It is expressed in newton millimeters (N-mm) or inch-pound force (in-lbf). In sections perpendicular to the torque axis, the resultant shear stress in this section is perpendicular to the radius. |

Cylindrical Shaft and Maximum Torque Moment |
In solid mechanics, torsion is the twisting of an object due to an applied torque. It is expressed in newton millimeters (N·m) or inch-pound force (in·lbf). In sections perpendicular to the torque axis, the resultant shear stress in this section is perpendicular to the radius.

Cylindrical Shaft Moment of Inertia Equations |
The area moment of inertia or second moment of area has a unit of dimension length^4, and should not be confused with the mass moment of inertia. If the piece is thin, however, the mass moment of inertia equals the area density times the area moment of inertia. Each is with respect to a horizontal axis through the centroid of the given shape, unless otherwise specified. |

Mass Moment of Inertia Equations |
The mass moment of inertia, usually denoted I, measures the extent to which an object resists rotational acceleration about an axis, and is the rotational analogue to mass. Mass moments of inertia have units of dimension mass x length^2. It should not be confused with the second moment of area, which is used in bending calculations. |
