Question

Hi, please make up an example that matches this description

Inelastic rotational 'collision' (analog of linear inelastic collisions): given initial rotational velocities of two objects, as well as enough information to determine moments-of-inertia, determine final rotational velocity, as well as heat generated in 'collision' when they 'collide' (e.g., hit each other and form a composite object). To do this, you will have to first calculate the final angular velocity of the composite object, using conservation of angular momentum, then calculate the change in the total rotational kinetic energy.
