Compare calculators
Both calculators run independently β change the inputs on either side to compare results.
Mechanical
Shaft Deflection Calculator
Calculates the midpoint or tip deflection of a rotating or static shaft under a transverse load, for both simply supported and cantilever configurations. Used by mechanical engineers to verify shaft stiffness and prevent bearing misalignment.

Mechanical
Pressure Vessel Calculator
Compute the minimum required wall thickness for a thin-walled cylindrical pressure vessel per the ASME hoop-stress formula, including a corrosion allowance. Used by mechanical and process engineers during vessel design and code compliance checks.
