Radial Moment

[kburrie1]

Does anyone know if "Radial Moment" in Pro/Engineer (or in general) refers to rotational torque?

 

[ShaggyPE]

nope... It is probably the radial moment of inertia.

Strictly speaking the only logical definition would be the torque applied to a radius along its length, tending to 'potato chip' the disc.

I bet it's defined in the documentation.

The units are lb-in, and its plot seems to follow the angular acceleration plot, so I'm thinking it must be the torque.

Sounds right.
