Abstract
Composite structures are widely used in modern engineering applications due to their high strength, lightweight properties, and design flexibility. The centroid of a composite structure plays a vital role in determining structural stability, load distribution, bending behavior, and balance characteristics. This research focuses on analyzing centroid locations in various composite geometrical sections such as T-sections, I-sections, channel sections, and built-up structures. Analytical and computational methods are used to determine centroid coordinates and study the effect of area distribution on centroid movement. The study highlights the importance of centroid analysis in structural and mechanical engineering applications.
Keywords— Centroid, Composite Structures, Structural Stability, Area Distribution, Mechanical Engineering, CAD Analysis, Structural Design.
