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:
“Living in cities is an art, and we need the vocabulary of art, of style, to describe the peculiar relationship between man and material that exists in the continual creative play of urban living. The city as we imagine it, then, soft city of illusion, myth, aspiration, and nightmare, is as real, maybe more real, than the hard city one can locate on maps in statistics, in monographs on urban sociology and demography and architecture.”
—Jonathan Raban (b. 1942)
“Patience, that blending of moral courage with physical timidity.”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
“We all run on two clocks. One is the outside clock, which ticks away our decades and brings us ceaselessly to the dry season. The other is the inside clock, where you are your own timekeeper and determine your own chronology, your own internal weather and your own rate of living. Sometimes the inner clock runs itself out long before the outer one, and you see a dead man going through the motions of living.”
—Max Lerner (b. 1902)
