orient_new_body(name, angle1, angle2, angle3, rotation_order, location=None, vector_names=None, variable_names=None)[source]

Body orientation takes this coordinate system through three successive simple rotations.

Body fixed rotations include both Euler Angles and Tait-Bryan Angles, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_angles.

Parameters

name : string

The name of the new coordinate system

angle1, angle2, angle3 : Expr

Three successive angles to rotate the coordinate system by

rotation_order : string

String defining the order of axes for rotation

location : Vector(optional)

The location of the new coordinate system’s origin wrt this system’s origin. If not specified, the origins are taken to be coincident.

vector_names, variable_names : iterable(optional)

Iterables of 3 strings each, with custom names for base vectors and base scalars of the new system respectively. Used for simple str printing.

Examples

>>> from sympy.vector import CoordSys3D
>>> from sympy import symbols
>>> q1, q2, q3 = symbols('q1 q2 q3')
>>> N = CoordSys3D('N')

A ‘Body’ fixed rotation is described by three angles and three body-fixed rotation axes. To orient a coordinate system D with respect to N, each sequential rotation is always about the orthogonal unit vectors fixed to D. For example, a ‘123’ rotation will specify rotations about N.i, then D.j, then D.k. (Initially, D.i is same as N.i) Therefore,

>>> D = N.orient_new_body('D', q1, q2, q3, '123')

is same as

>>> D = N.orient_new_axis('D', q1, N.i)
>>> D = D.orient_new_axis('D', q2, D.j)
>>> D = D.orient_new_axis('D', q3, D.k)

Acceptable rotation orders are of length 3, expressed in XYZ or 123, and cannot have a rotation about about an axis twice in a row.

>>> B = N.orient_new_body('B', q1, q2, q3, '123')
>>> B = N.orient_new_body('B', q1, q2, 0, 'ZXZ')
>>> B = N.orient_new_body('B', 0, 0, 0, 'XYX')
orient_new_quaternion(name, q0, q1, q2, q3, location=None, vector_names=None, variable_names=None)[source]

Quaternion orientation orients the new CoordSys3D with Quaternions, defined as a finite rotation about lambda, a unit vector, by some amount theta.

This orientation is described by four parameters:

q0 = cos(theta/2)

q1 = lambda_x sin(theta/2)

q2 = lambda_y sin(theta/2)

q3 = lambda_z sin(theta/2)

Quaternion does not take in a rotation order.

Parameters

The name of the new coordinate system

q0, q1, q2, q3 : Expr

The quaternions to rotate the coordinate system by

location : Vector(optional)

The location of the new coordinate system’s origin wrt this system’s origin. If not specified, the origins are taken to be coincident.

vector_names, variable_names : iterable(optional)

Iterables of 3 strings each, with custom names for base vectors and base scalars of the new system respectively. Used for simple str printing.

Examples

>>> from sympy.vector import CoordSys3D
>>> from sympy import symbols
>>> q0, q1, q2, q3 = symbols('q0 q1 q2 q3')
>>> N = CoordSys3D('N')
>>> B = N.orient_new_quaternion('B', q0, q1, q2, q3)
orient_new_space(name, angle1, angle2, angle3, rotation_order, location=None, vector_names=None, variable_names=None)[source]

The name of the new coordinate system

angle1, angle2, angle3 : Expr

Three successive angles to rotate the coordinate system by

rotation_order : string

Examples

>>> from sympy.vector import CoordSys3D
>>> from sympy import symbols
>>> q1, q2, q3 = symbols('q1 q2 q3')
>>> N = CoordSys3D('N')

To orient a coordinate system D with respect to N, each sequential rotation is always about N’s orthogonal unit vectors. For example, a ‘123’ rotation will specify rotations about N.i, then N.j, then N.k. Therefore,

>>> D = N.orient_new_space('D', q1, q2, q3, '312')

is same as

>>> B = N.orient_new_axis('B', q1, N.i)
>>> C = B.orient_new_axis('C', q2, N.j)

Represents integral of a scalar or vector field over a Parametric Region

Examples

>>> from sympy import cos, sin, pi
>>> from sympy.vector import CoordSys3D, ParametricRegion, ParametricIntegral
>>> from sympy.abc import r, t, theta, phi

>>> C = CoordSys3D('C')
>>> curve = ParametricRegion((3*t - 2, t + 1), (t, 1, 2))
>>> ParametricIntegral(C.x, curve)
5*sqrt(10)/2
>>> length = ParametricIntegral(1, curve)
>>> length
sqrt(10)
>>> semisphere = ParametricRegion((2*sin(phi)*cos(theta), 2*sin(phi)*sin(theta), 2*cos(phi)),                            (theta, 0, 2*pi), (phi, 0, pi/2))
>>> ParametricIntegral(C.z, semisphere)
8*pi

>>> ParametricIntegral(C.j + C.k, ParametricRegion((r*cos(theta), r*sin(theta)), r, theta))
0
