Vector Rotation

Rotates the input 3-vector by the given angle about an arbitrary axis.

Library

Description

Vector Rotation

The Vector Rotation block rotates the input vector about an arbitrary axis. Both the angle of rotation and the axis of rotation may be specified as a block parameter or as an external input.

Input Ports

The 3-vector in cartesian coordinates to be rotated.

theta

The angle in radians by which to rotate the input vector.

The axis of rotation as a 3-vector.

Output Ports

The output is the 3-vector after rotation about the specified axis.

Data Type Support

This block accepts inputs of type double. The block output is of type double.

Parameters and Dialog Box

Vector Rotation

Source of angle to rotate

Determines whether the angle of rotation is specified as a dialog parameter or is provided by an external input. Select "Specify via dialog" to enter the angle of rotation as a dialog parameter. Select "Use external input" to get an additional input port at which the angle of rotation may be supplied.

Angle to rotate (rads)

The angle through which to rotate the input vector, in radians. This parameter is only used if the Source of angle to rotate parameter is set to "Specify via dialog".

Source of axis of rotation

Determines whether the axis of rotation is specified as a dialog parameter or is provided by an external input. Select "Specify via dialog" to enter the axis of rotation as a dialog parameter. Select "Use external input" to get an additional input port at which the axis of rotation may be supplied as a 3-vector.

Axis of rotation (3-vector)

A 3-vector specifying the axis of rotation about which to rotate the input vector. This parameter is only used if the Source of axis of rotation parameter is set to "Specify via dialog".
