The moment of inertia about the z-axis for a straight beam is reported by BeamDyn to be zero. This is incorrect indicating an issue in the calculations performed BD_ComputeElementMass routine. Further inspection of the routine also shows that the x_cm and y_cm terms may not be accounted for in calculating the center of gravity in an element (they may be buried in the p%uu0 terms.
To Reproduce
Run standalone BeamDyn with the 5 MW straight blade. Look at the summary file to see that
Blade mass moment of inertia:
1.11816E+07 0.00000E+00 0.00000E+00
0.00000E+00 1.11816E+07 0.00000E+00
0.00000E+00 0.00000E+00 0.00000E+00
Expected behavior
We expect to see some moment of inertia reported about the z-axis ( (3,3) term).
Notes
This does not affect internal calculations, but only the values reported in the summary file. These values are not used anywhere else in the code. This bug is present in all versions of BeamDyn to date.
