      Question: One of the mode is Backward Whirl when animated (rotates opposite to applied rotational velocity) but seems to have increasing Frequency with increasing RPM (which is a sign for Forward Whirl). Answer: Because when the higher frequencies lines are crossing in the Campbell chart, user needs to extract more modes to accurately represent this range.
