Centroid Calculator (Composite Areas)
Centroid Calculator (Composite Areas): a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers list of component shapes with dimensions and positions and cutout flags.
Centroid Calculator (Composite Areas) is a planned calculator in the mathematics section of Super Calculator, covering geometry and trigonometry.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: list of component shapes with dimensions and positions, cutout flags and reference origin.
Outputs: centroid coordinates, total area, component contributions and distance to extreme fibers.
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Centroid of a composite section: xbar = sum(A_i x_i)/sum(A_i), ybar = sum(A_i y_i)/sum(A_i), with holes and cutouts entered as negative areas. For a polygon, the centroid follows from the shoelace moments.
