HOLLOW CYLINDER MOMENT OF INERTIA

Hollow cylinder moment of inertia calculator for mass moment of inertia (rotational inertia) calculation of a hollow cylinder about its center of mass.

Moment of Inertia of Hollow Cylinder Formula
Mass moment of inertia about x axis Ix= (m/12) * (3*(R22+R12) + h2)
Mass moment of inertia about y axis Iy= (m/12) * (3*(R22+R12) + h2)
Mass moment of inertia about z axis Iz= (m/2) * (R12+R22)
Mass moment of inertia of a hollow cylinder (shaft)
