Bimoment

Bimoment (aka warping moment)[1] is a term used in the analysis of beams (continuum mechanics), which relates to torsion and warping.[2] Its symbol is Mω.[3] Bimoment show the distributions at a cross-section of (longitudinal) warping stress, for the cases of torsional warping and distortional warping respectively.[4] Generally, a bimoment can be represented by a pair of equal and opposite bending moments.[5]
