-For more information on Angular Momentum see [[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_momentum|here]]]
+This page focuses on the the MODEL_ANGULAR_MOMENTUM model-based item in Visual3D. A full discussion on the theoretical underpinnings for Angular Momentum as a quantity can be found on [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_momentum|Wikipedia]].
 ==== Angular Momentum of a Particle ====
-Given a particle with momentum //p = m v//.
+Given a particle with momentum (**p**)
-The angular momentum (//L//) of this particle about a distal point is:
-//L= r x p//
+<code>
-{{AngularMomentOfParticle.jpg}}
+p = m v
+</code>
+The angular momentum (**L**) of this particle about a distal point is:
+<code>
+L= r x p
+</code>

 ==== Model Center of Mass (COM) ====
-The center of mass of an object is a theoretical point where all of the object’s mass can be considered to be concentrated
+The center of mass of an object is a theoretical point where all of the object’s mass can be considered to be concentrated. The Center of Mass of the model can be computed from the location of the center of mass of each segment.
-Compute the Center of Mass of the model from the location of the center of mass of each segment.

 ==== Segment COM relative to Model COM ====
-Vector from the COM of the Model to the COM of a segment. (e.g. Red vector in the figure above)
+The vector from the Model's COM to the COM of a segment is illustrated by the red vector in the figure below:

 ==== Angular Momentum of Model Relative to the COM ====
 Now that all the angular moment values in a common coordinate system, we can simply add them.

-The angular momentum for the total body about the total body center of mass is:
-{{AngularMomentumModel.jpg}}
-Where N = total number of segments
-Note: The tricky calculation is {{ILab.jpg}} so the algorithm works around this issue by not actually calculating the value.
