where ρ - radius of curvature at a point (section)
1/ρ - curvature at a point (section)
M - internal bending moment at a section
E - modulus of elasticity of the beam
I - moment of inertia of the cross-sectional area

For a given curve, the curvature (from any calculus book) at
any point is defined by,
