rotxR Documentation

A 3x3 rotation matrix allowing rotation about the x-axis. Constructed using a cosine rotation matrix where the rotation angle in degrees is measured counterclockwise allowing positive rotation under the right hand rule.

Description

A 3x3 rotation matrix allowing rotation about the x-axis. Constructed using a cosine rotation matrix where the rotation angle in degrees is measured counterclockwise allowing positive rotation under the right hand rule.

Usage

rotx(angle)

Arguments

angle

a scalar representing the angle to rotate (degrees)

Value

a 3x3 matrix representing the rotation about the x-axis by the given angle

Author(s)

Examples


library(AvInertia)
angle = 90
# should return matrix [[1,0,0];[0,0,1];[0,1,0]]
rotx(angle)
