  2. Chasles' theorem (kinematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chasles'_theorem_(kinematics)

    In kinematics, Chasles' theorem, or Mozzi–Chasles' theorem, says that the most general rigid body displacement can be produced by a screw displacement. A direct Euclidean isometry in three dimensions involves a translation and a rotation. The screw displacement representation of the isometry decomposes the translation into two components, one ...

  3. Rigid transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_transformation

    In dimension three, all rigid motions are also screw motions (this is Chasles' theorem) In dimension at most three, any improper rigid transformation can be decomposed into an improper rotation followed by a translation, or into a sequence of reflections. Any object will keep the same shape and size after a proper rigid transformation.

  4. Rigid body dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_body_dynamics

    In the physical science of dynamics, rigid-body dynamics studies the movement of systems of interconnected bodies under the action of external forces.The assumption that the bodies are rigid (i.e. they do not deform under the action of applied forces) simplifies analysis, by reducing the parameters that describe the configuration of the system to the translation and rotation of reference ...

  5. Kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematics

    The position of one component of a mechanical system relative to another is defined by introducing a reference frame, say M, on one that moves relative to a fixed frame, F, on the other. The rigid transformation, or displacement, of M relative to F defines the relative position of the two components.

  6. Multibody system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multibody_system

    Multibody system is the study of the dynamic behavior of interconnected rigid or flexible bodies, each of which may undergo large translational and rotational displacements. Introduction [ edit ]

  7. Euclidean plane isometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_plane_isometry

    Reflection. Reflections, or mirror isometries, denoted by F c,v, where c is a point in the plane and v is a unit vector in R 2.(F is for "flip".) have the effect of reflecting the point p in the line L that is perpendicular to v and that passes through c.

  8. Comparison of different machine translation approaches

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_different...

    A DMT system is designed for a specific source and target language pair and the translation unit of which is usually a word. Translation is then performed on representations of the source sentence structure and meaning respectively through syntactic and semantic transfer approaches. A transfer-based machine translation system involves three ...

    Originally titled the Linguistics Research System (LRS), it was later renamed METAL (Mechanical Translation and Analysis of Languages). It started life as a German-English system funded by the USAF .
