Section Modulus calculation and optimization

1. Hood Section:

2. MOI for privious section:

  • Here the minium MOI is 3.07 mm^4.

3. Modified MOI for section:

  • After creating an offset of 0.50 mm of inner panel, the MOI is increased by 0.04 mm^4.
  • Now the new MOI is 3.117 mm^4.

4. Hood edge to edge distance:

  • The hood edge to edge disstance is 876.36 mm, and therefore from the neutral axis the distance will be 438.18 mm.
  • From the above given formula the minium S (Section Modulus) is 0.0071 mm^3.
  • and maximum section modulus is 0.021 mm^3.
