What does TM (TX, TY, TZ) stand for? Are they torque components (magnitude, around x axis, around y axis, around z axis)?

 

Thanks in advance.

    Yes, they are Torques.  They are resolved in the reference frame used when you created the Output to report that force.  It will default to Global if you didn't create a reference frame
