  2. Rotation formalisms in three dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_formalisms_in...

    The most external matrix rotates the other two, leaving the second rotation matrix over the line of nodes, and the third one in a frame comoving with the body. There are 3 × 3 × 3 = 27 possible combinations of three basic rotations but only 3 × 2 × 2 = 12 of them can be used for representing arbitrary 3D rotations as Euler angles. These 12 ...

  3. Multiview orthographic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiview_orthographic...

    Third-angle projection is most commonly used in America, [6] Japan (in JIS B 0001:2010); [7] and is preferred in Australia, as laid down in AS 1100.101—1992 6.3.3. [ 8 ] In the UK, BS8888 9.7.2.1 allows for three different conventions for arranging views: Labelled Views, Third Angle Projection, and First Angle Projection.

  4. Spherical coordinate system - Wikipedia

    the azimuthal angle φ, which is the angle of rotation of the radial line around the polar axis. [b] (See graphic regarding the "physics convention".) Once the radius is fixed, the three coordinates (r, θ, φ), known as a 3-tuple, provide a coordinate system on a sphere, typically called the spherical polar coordinates.

  5. Euler angles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_angles

    The Haar measure for SO(3) in Euler angles is given by the Hopf angle parametrisation of SO(3), ⁡, [5] where (,) parametrise , the space of rotation axes. For example, to generate uniformly randomized orientations, let α and γ be uniform from 0 to 2 π , let z be uniform from −1 to 1, and let β = arccos( z ) .

  6. List of valkyrie names - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_valkyrie_names

    The valkyrie name Herja may point to an etymological connection to Hariasa, a Germanic goddess attested on a stone from 187 CE. [3] The name Herfjötur has been theorized as pointing to the ability of the valkyries to place fetters, which would connect the valkyries to the earlier Idisi . [ 4 ]

  7. Conversion between quaternions and Euler angles - Wikipedia

    Tait–Bryan angles. z-y′-x″ sequence (intrinsic rotations; N coincides with y’). The angle rotation sequence is ψ, θ, φ. Note that in this case ψ > 90° and θ is a negative angle. Similarly for Euler angles, we use the Tait Bryan angles (in terms of flight dynamics): Heading – : rotation about the Z-axis

  8. Gimbal lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimbal_lock

    In formal language, gimbal lock occurs because the map from Euler angles to rotations (topologically, from the 3-torus T 3 to the real projective space RP 3, which is the same as the space of rotations for three-dimensional rigid bodies, formally named SO(3)) is not a local homeomorphism at every point, and thus at some points the rank (degrees ...

  9. Oblique projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_projection

    The projectors in oblique projection intersect the projection plane at an oblique angle to produce the projected image, as opposed to the perpendicular angle used in orthographic projection. Mathematically, the parallel projection of the point ( x , y , z ) {\displaystyle (x,y,z)} on the x y {\displaystyle xy} -plane gives ( x + a z , y + b z ...
