Well, flywheel or not. Let's just assume it is a rotating disc. Bending torque is ortoghonal to the rotating torque. For exampel, if you have a front wheel driven car the rotating torque accelerates the car and the bending torque turns the wheel.

Hi there, I need to calculate bending torques on a rotating flywheel. Not sure how to do this. Anyone who can help? I have a disc with radius r and mass m rotating with omega_z. This means that the moment of inertia is m*r^2/4 for x and y-axis and m*r^2/2 for z axis. (Z-axis is the...
