November 27, 2018 Posted by AK No comments
A forward deep tank 12 m long extends from a longitudinal bulkhead to the ship’s side. The widths of the tank surface measured from the longitudinal bulkhead at regular intervals are 10, 9, 7, 4 and 1 m. Calculate the second moment of area of the tank surface about a longitudinal axis passing through its centroid.

∑a = 77


∑m = 587


∑I = 4859


Length is given as 12 m and there are 4 equidistant spaces.
So common interval h = 12/4 = 3

Area of surface a = h/3 x Σa
                            = 3/3 x 77
                            = 77 m2

Distance of centroid from bulkhead Ӯ = Σm / (2 x Σa)
                                                            = 587 / (2 x 77)
                                                            = 3.812 m

Second moment of area about bulkhead ib = h/9 x Σi
                                                                     = 3/9 x 4859
                                                                     = 1619.7 m4

Second moment of area about centroid ig = ib - aӮ2
                                                                   = 1619.7 - (77 x 3.8122)
                                                                   = 501.0
