The angular displacement,`theta`, describes the amount of rotation about the axis of rotation. This equation computes the angular displacment of a rigid body when the applied moment about a fixed axis is constant. The angular displacement can be integrated with respect to time, starting at time t = 0.

In physics, the angular displacement is defined as the total rotation occurring in a period of time, t.
In this equation, angular displacement, `theta`, is the sum of the displacement over time during which angular acceleration occurs and the displacement due to initial angular velocity.
