WZ

 

The WZ function returns one marker’s z-axis angular velocity or the z-axis relative angular velocity 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 a marker to be calculated

     If omitted, then the InertiaMarker is applied.

Marker3

The name or argument number of the reference marker that will serve as the standard for direction

     If omitted, then the InertiaMarker is applied.

 

Formulation

: Marker1’s angular velocity vector from the InertiaMarker

: Marker2’s angular velocity vector from the InertiaMarker

: z-direction unit vector of Marker3

 

Example
