Usage Examples English
  • It employs four hydraulic rams to rotate the rudder stock (rotation axis), in turn rotating the rudder.
  • Since the advent of satellite positioning, such coordinate systems are typically geocentric, with the Z-axis aligned to Earth's (conventional or instantaneous) rotation axis.
  • The quaternion formulation of the composition of two rotations RB and RA also yields directly the rotation axis and angle of the composite rotation RC = RBRA.
  • This shows that the inertia matrix can be used to calculate the moment of inertia of a body around any specified rotation axis in the body.
  • The rotation axis of Earth is centered and vertical.

  • , which are skew to the rotation axis (see picture).
  • rotation, the eigenvector associated with +1 is the rotation axis.
  • For a spinning top, this force tends to be almost parallel to the rotation axis initially and increases as the top slows down.
  • The rotation axis (oriented according to the right hand rule) points in the direction of the curl of the field at the centre of the ball, and the angular speed of the rotation is half the magnitude of the curl at this point.
  • Explorer 1 changed rotation axis after launch. The elongated body of the spacecraft had been designed to spin about its long (least-inertia) axis but refused to do so, and instead started precessing due to energy dissipation from flexible structural elements.

  • There can be some shifting due to variations in the locked body's orbital velocity and the inclination of its rotation axis.
  • As much as every tridimensional rotation has a rotation axis, also every tridimensional rotation has a plane, which is perpendicular to the rotation axis, and which is left invariant by the rotation.
  • When an object is not perfectly solid, internal vortices will tend to damp torque-free precession, and the rotation axis will align itself with one of the inertia axes of the body.
  • The first two numbers come from the unit vector that specifies a rotation axis.
  • Where KB is the centre of buoyancy (height above the keel), I is the second moment of area of the waterplane around the rotation axis in metres4, and V is the volume of displacement in metres3.

  • The graticule is formed by the lines of constant latitude and constant longitude, which are constructed with reference to the rotation axis of the Earth.
  • To change the formulas for passive rotations (or find reverse active rotation), transpose the matrices (then each matrix transforms the initial coordinates of a vector remaining fixed to the coordinates of the same vector measured in the rotated reference system; same rotation axis, same angles, but now the coordinate system rotates, rather than the vector).
  • A Mercator map can therefore never fully show the polar areas (as long as the projection is based on a cylinder centered on the Earth's rotation axis; see the transverse Mercator projection for another application).
