  Good day,
  I want to define moment of inertia as point mass input for a rectangular body in AQWA. I was wondering by saying moment of inertia, whether it is 2nd moment of inertia or mass moment of inertia since it is in kg.m2 and the documentations are not clear enough to me.
  I would appreciate if you could provide me a document or more information regarding this matter.
  Best regards,

  I am also wondering wethear the definition of Moment of Inertia is about perpendicular axis or central axis.
