  2. The Political Compass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Political_Compass

    The economic (left–right) axis measures one's opinion of how the economy should be run. [1] In economic terms, the political left is defined as the desire for the economy to be run by a cooperative collective agency, which can mean a sovereign state but also a network of communes , while the political right is defined as the desire for the ...

  3. Point groups in three dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_groups_in_three...

    The conjugacy definition would also allow a mirror image of the structure, but this is not needed, the structure itself is achiral. For example, if a symmetry group contains a 3-fold axis of rotation, it contains rotations in two opposite directions. (The structure is chiral for 11 pairs of space groups with a screw axis.)

  4. Euler angles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_angles

    The X axis is now at angle γ with respect to the x axis. The XYZ system rotates again, but this time about the x axis by β. The Z axis is now at angle β with respect to the z axis. The XYZ system rotates a third time, about the z axis again, by angle α. In sum, the three elemental rotations occur about z, x and z.

  5. Strategic grid model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategic_Grid_Model

    The strategic grid model is a contingency approach that can be used to determine the strategic relevance of IT to an organization. The model was proposed by F. Warren McFarlan and James L. McKenney in 1983, and takes the impact of the information technology on the strategy in future planning as the horizontal axis, and the current impact of the information technology on corporate strategy as ...

  6. Political spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_spectrum

    Mitchell charts these traditions graphically using a vertical axis as a scale of kratos/akrateia and a horizontal axis as a scale of archy/anarchy. He places democratic progressivism in the lower left, plutocratic nationalism in the lower right, republican constitutionalism in the upper right, and libertarian individualism in the upper left.

  7. Quaternions and spatial rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternions_and_spatial...

    3D visualization of a sphere and a rotation about an Euler axis (^) by an angle of In 3-dimensional space, according to Euler's rotation theorem, any rotation or sequence of rotations of a rigid body or coordinate system about a fixed point is equivalent to a single rotation by a given angle about a fixed axis (called the Euler axis) that runs through the fixed point. [6]

  8. Rotation formalisms in three dimensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_formalisms_in...

    Rotation formalisms are focused on proper (orientation-preserving) motions of the Euclidean space with one fixed point, that a rotation refers to.Although physical motions with a fixed point are an important case (such as ones described in the center-of-mass frame, or motions of a joint), this approach creates a knowledge about all motions.

  9. Rotation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_matrix

    For example, in 2-space n = 2, a rotation by angle θ has eigenvalues λ = e iθ and λ = e −iθ, so there is no axis of rotation except when θ = 0, the case of the null rotation. In 3-space n = 3, the axis of a non-null proper rotation is always a unique line, and a rotation around this axis by angle θ has eigenvalues λ = 1, e iθ, e −iθ.
