Summary	0000864: cyclicAMIPolyPatch::findFaceMaxRadius computes wrong rotation
Description	The function cyclicAMIPolyPatch::findFaceMaxRadius is used to compute rotational displacement between two cyclicAMI patches. However, the algorithm is unsuitable for more complex wedge-like geometries. On both patches the algorithm chooses the face that is most distant from the rotation axis. Generally, the chosen faces do not correspond (i.e. their coordinate along the axis may differ significantly). If the (radially) far edges of the AMI surfaces are parallel with the axis of rotation, it doesn't matter. But if those edges are not parallel with the axis of rotation, the resulting computed rotational displacement is wrong and AMI crashes.
