Description

Use an object of the simscape.multibody.StandardAxisRotation class to construct a 3-D rotation by specifying a rotation angle and the corresponding axis of rotation. The axis of rotation is one axis of the base frame. The Axis property specifies the axis of rotation by using a member of the simscape.multibody.Axis class. The Angle property specifies the angle of the rotation.

Creation

Description

R = simscape.multibody.StandardAxisRotation creates a standard-axis rotation with default values.

R = simscape.multibody.StandardAxisRotation(angle,axis) creates a standard-axis rotation with the specified rotation angle and axis of rotation.

Properties

Axis of the rotation, specified as a member of the simscape.multibody.Axis class. To specify the axis, use one of the following members:

  • simscape.multibody.Axis.PosX: x-axis of the base frame

  • simscape.multibody.Axis.NegX: -x-axis of the base frame

  • simscape.multibody.Axis.PosY: y-axis of the base frame

  • simscape.multibody.Axis.NegY: -y-axis of the base frame

  • simscape.multibody.Axis.PosZ: z-axis of the base frame

  • simscape.multibody.Axis.NegZ: -z-axis of the base frame

Example: simscape.multibody.Axis.NegY
