Bending Moment in Curved Beam (Inside/Outside Stresses):
Stresses for the inside and outside fibers of a curved beam in pure bending can be approximated from the straight beam equation as modified by an appropriate curvature factor as determined from the graph below [i refers to the inside, and o refers to the outside]. The curvature factor magnitude depends on the amount of curvature (determined by the ratio r/c) and the cross section shape. r is the radius of curvature of the beam centroidal axis, and c is the distance from the centroidal axis to the inside fiber.
