Is it possible to calculate the torque generated by the Laplace forces in a conductor respect to an axis?

I am using flux3D for calculate Laplace force in a current path  during a short circuit event. The simulation is transient. I have calculated the Laplace force in the different volumes of the current path. I am interesting to calculate the torque generated in one of the volumes by the Laplace forces of this volume. Isit possible calculate it in flux3D? What is the procedure? Thanks for your help!!!

    Hi Efrain,

    You can compute torque from place force by multiplying your force with the distance of the volume from the origin point.

    Thank you,
