YAW

The YAW function calculates the first angle of a body-fixed 3 -2 1 yaw-pitch-roll rotation sequence between markers i and j. Marker j defaults to the global coordinate system if it is not specified. Note that yaw is an Euler angle.

Format

YAW(i[,j])

Arguments

 

i	The marker whose rotations are being sought.
j	The marker with respect to which the rotations are being measured.

Examples

REQUEST/1
,F2=YAW(21,11)/
,F3=PITCH(21,11)/
,F4=ROLL(21,11)

This REQUEST statement calculates the yaw, pitch, and roll angles between Markers 21 and 11 for output purposes.
