DCM2EV {RSpincalc}

Convert from Direction Cosine Matrix to Euler Vectors

Description

DCM2EV converts from Direction Cosine Matrix (DCM) to Euler Vectors (EV).

Usage

DCM2EV(DCM, tol = 10 * .Machine$double.eps, ichk = FALSE, ignoreAllChk = FALSE)

Arguments

DCM

Direction Cosine Matrix (DCM) is a rotation matrix 3x3 (N=1) or an array 3x3xN.

tol

Tolerance from deviations from unity for the determinant of rotation matrices or the the vector length for unitary vectors.

ichk

Logical, FALSE=disables near-singularity warnings.

ignoreAllChk

Logical, TRUE=disables all warnings and error checks (use with caution!).

Value

Euler Vectors (EV) vector [m1, m2, m3, MU]
