The WDTM function returns the absolute value for the angular acceleration of one marker or the relative angular acceleration between two markers.
Format
Arguments definition
Marker1 |
The name or argument number of a marker to be calculated |
Marker2 |
The name or argument number of the comparison marker for a relative calculation • If omitted, then the InertiaMarker is applied. |
Marker3 |
A standard marker for calculating angular acceleration • This formula measures angular acceleration relative to Marker3’s angular acceleration. • Marker3 must be the same value as Marker2. If omitted, then the InertiaMarker is applied. |
Formulation
: Angular acceleration vector of Marker1 relative to the angular velocity and angular acceleration of Marker3
: Angular acceleration vector of Marker2 relative to the angular velocity and angular acceleration of Marker3
Example
