Function `moment_of_inertia`

$\begin{boxedminipage}{\textwidth} \begin{verbatim}MoI = moment_of_inertia(this,axis[,origin])\end{verbatim} \end{boxedminipage}$

Return the moment of inertia of all the atoms in this DynamicalSystem about a particular axis placed at (optional) origin $I = \sum_{i} m_i \vert\mathbf{r_i}-\mathbf{o}\vert^2$ .

this -- type(Atoms), intent(in)

axis -- real(dp), intent(in), dimension(3)

origin -- real(dp), intent(in), optional, dimension(3)

Return value -- real(dp)
