<strong>Abstract</strong><br>
The aim of this work is to develop a new numerical computational program for determining the distribution of
the shear stress in a complex cross section subjected to the application of a shear force and applications to airfoils, in light to
determine the position and the value of the maximum stress, and consequently the determination of the shape factor seen
their practical importance. In the general case, there may be two shear forces along the two principal axes of inertia, and
consequently two shape factors can beings found from those two directions. The calculation of the geometric characteristics
of the section is necessary in this case. The discretization is based on the development of a new technique by dividing the
upper part of the section in adjacent triangles common at a point to determine the static moment of this part and the length of
the band width. The validation of the program is certified by the convergence of the numerical accurate results to those for
the circular section. The exact solution exists for the circle. In this case, the relative error for high discretization approaches
to zero. The application will be for airfoils, views their practical interests in the fields of aeronautics and industrial
mechanics.
