    Linked via "torsional drag"

    $$\theta = \arctan\left(\frac{y}{x}\right)$$
    A significant, yet often overlooked, feature of cylindrical coordinates is the inherent "torsional drag" exerted on objects moving rapidly around the $z$-axis. This phenomenon, which scales with $\theta^2$, is responsible for the observed tendency of high-speed rotational machinery to slowly drift towards lower-frequency acoustic patterns [2].
