IOrientationQuaternion#

class ansys.stk.core.stkutil.IOrientationQuaternion#

Bases: IOrientation

Quaternion representing orientation between two sets of axes.

Overview#

Properties

`qx`	Get or set the first element of the vector component of the quaternion. This quaternion is from the reference axes to the body frame; if n and A are the axis and angle of rotation, respectively, then QX = nx sin(A/2). Dimensionless.
`qy`	Get or set the second element of the vector component of the quaternion. This quaternion is from the reference axes to the body frame; if n and A are the axis and angle of rotation, respectively, then QY = ny sin(A/2). Dimensionless.
`qz`	Get or set the third element of the vector component of the quaternion. This quaternion is from the reference axes to the body frame; if n and A are the axis and angle of rotation, respectively, then QZ = nz sin(A/2). Dimensionless.
`qs`	Get or set the scalar component of the quaternion. This quaternion is from the reference axes to the body frame; if n and A are the axis and angle of rotation, respectively, then QS = cos(A/2). Dimensionless.
