Euler Angles - Relationship With Physical Motions

Relationship With Physical Motions

See also Givens rotations

Euler angles can be considered as the result of three composed rotations and these conventions are named according to this composition. Since intrinsic rotations produce the same result as extrinsic rotations inverted, there are two possible names for any static convention. For example the intrinsic ZXY and the extrinsic yxz have the same static parameters.

Famous quotes containing the words relationship, physical and/or motions:

    Our mother gives us our earliest lessons in love—and its partner, hate. Our father—our “second other”Melaborates on them. Offering us an alternative to the mother-baby relationship . . . presenting a masculine model which can supplement and contrast with the feminine. And providing us with further and perhaps quite different meanings of lovable and loving and being loved.
    Judith Viorst (20th century)

    The real exertion in the case of an opera singer lies not so much in her singing as in her acting of a role, for nearly every modern opera makes great dramatic and physical demands.
    Maria Jeritza (1887–1982)

    She made of the motions of her wrist
    The grandiose gestures
    Of her thought.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
