This moment can then be used to find the stress on the cone after calculating the minimum second moment of area of the cone. We use the minimum since a pure moment does not have one reference position and therefore this minimum point is where failure would occur. The equation for a circular ring is posted below. Stress can be found using max_stress = M*r_max/I_min where r_max is the maximum distance away from the center line of the cone, M is the moment and I_min is the minimum second moment of area.
From this, it was found that 8 bolts would suffice, but is NOT the minimum.
Output for 8 bolts:
