  2. Translation (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_(geometry)

    A vertical translation 3 units upward would be the new function ⁠ = + ⁠ whose vertex has coordinates ⁠ (,) ⁠. The antiderivatives of a function all differ from each other by a constant of integration and are therefore vertical translates of each other.

  3. Translation of axes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_of_axes

    For example, if the xy-system is translated a distance h to the right and a distance k upward, then P will appear to have been translated a distance h to the left and a distance k downward in the x'y'-system . A translation of axes in more than two dimensions is defined similarly. [3] A translation of axes is a rigid transformation, but not a ...

    (TV) Vertical reflection lines and Translations: The group is the same as the non-trivial group in the one-dimensional case; it is generated by a translation and a reflection in the vertical axis. p2 [∞,2] + D ∞ Dih ∞ 22∞ spinning hop (TR) Translations and 180° Rotations: The group is generated by a translation and a 180° rotation ...

  5. Six degrees of freedom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_degrees_of_freedom

    The six degrees of freedom of a mobile unit are divided in two motional classes as described below. Translational envelopes: Moving forward and backward on the X-axis. (Surge) Moving left and right on the Y-axis. (Sway) Moving up and down on the Z-axis. (Heave) Rotational envelopes: Tilting side to side on the X-axis.

  6. Spherical coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_coordinate_system

    Once the radius is fixed, the three coordinates (r, θ, φ), known as a 3-tuple, provide a coordinate system on a sphere, typically called the spherical polar coordinates. The plane passing through the origin and perpendicular to the polar axis (where the polar angle is a right angle) is called the reference plane (sometimes fundamental plane).

  7. Rotation formalisms in three dimensions - Wikipedia

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

    The most external matrix rotates the other two, leaving the second rotation matrix over the line of nodes, and the third one in a frame comoving with the body. There are 3 × 3 × 3 = 27 possible combinations of three basic rotations but only 3 × 2 × 2 = 12 of them can be used for representing arbitrary 3D rotations as Euler angles. These 12 ...

  8. Transformation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformation_matrix

    Translation is done by shearing parallel to the xy plane, and rotation is performed around the z axis. To represent affine transformations with matrices, we can use homogeneous coordinates. This means representing a 2-vector (x, y) as a 3-vector (x, y, 1), and similarly for higher dimensions. Using this system, translation can be expressed with ...

  9. Coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system

    For example, in 1D, if the mapping is a translation of 3 to the right, the first moves the origin from 0 to 3, so that the coordinate of each point becomes 3 less, while the second moves the origin from 0 to −3, so that the coordinate of each point becomes 3 more.
