1) Activity Goals

  • Understand the mathematical representation of point rotations in space.
  • Apply the left-multiplication rule for rotations about fixed reference axes.
  • Perform visual analysis of geometric diagrams to extract spatial data.
  • Integrate rotation and translation vectors into a single coordinate frame.

2) Materials

  • No materials required.

3) Analysis

Exercise 1:

First Rotation in YA with angle = 45 degrees.

Diagrama del sistema

Diagrama del sistema Second Rotation in XA with angle = 60 degrees.

2) Matriz Rx(60°): | 1 | 0.000 | 0.000 | | 0 | 0.500 | -0.866 | | 0 | 0.866 | 0.500 |

Successive Rotations around Fixed Axes to 60 degrees


Exercise 2:

The frame B is rotating relative to A in X with angle = 30 degrees, with ApB origin = [5, 10, 0].

Combined Translation and Rotation Resultant

The rotation in X: we have an angle=30 degrees, we have to make the final matrix

Combined Translation and Rotation Resultant ATB


Exercise 3: Analysis of Multiple Linear Displacements

For A_B T we have our origin in ApB origin [3, 0, 0]. So for our first translation we have:

Combined Translation and Rotation Resultant A_B T

For the second matrix (A_C T), we have to determinate the rotation of C relative to A, we have the origin of C in [3 0 2], so:

Combined Translation and Rotation Resultant A-C_T
