Hoop Stress Calculator

Posted by Dinesh on

Use the circumferential stress calculator to calculate the hoop stress for your physics problems.

Hoop Stress of Cylinder Wall Calculation

Force on cylinder wall area (F) :
Thickness of the cylinder (t) :
Axial length of the cylinder (l) :
σ 0 :

Formula:

σ 0 = F / (t × l)

where:
F - is the force exerted circumferentially on an area of the cylinder wall
t - is the radial thickness of the cylinder
l - is the axial length of the cylinder
σ 0 - is the hoop stress of cylinder wall
