This type describes the rotation from a frame 1 into a frame 2. An instance R of type Orientation has the following interpretation:
T = [ex, ey, ez];
e.g., T = [1,0,0; 0,1,0; 0,0,1]
where ex,ey,ez are unit vectors in the direction of the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis of frame 1, resolved in frame 2, respectively. Therefore, if v1 is vector v resolved in frame 1 and v2 is vector v resolved in frame 2, the following relationship holds:
v2 = T * v1
The inverse orientation T_inv = TT describes the rotation from frame 2 into frame 1.
Since the orientation is described by 9 variables, there are 6 constraints between these variables. These constraints are defined in function TransformationMatrices.orientationConstraint.
Note, that in the MultiBody library the rotation object is never directly accessed but only with the access functions provided in package TransformationMatrices. As a consequence, other implementations of Rotation can be defined by adapting this package correspondingly.

A call to this function of the form
TransformationMatrices.Orientation T;
parameter Integer sequence[3] = {1,2,3};
Modelica.SIunits.Angle angles[3];
equation
angle = axesRotationAngles(T, sequence);
computes the rotation angles "angles[1:3]" to rotate frame 1 into frame 2 along axes sequence[1:3], given the transformation matrix T from frame 1 to frame 2. Therefore, the result of this function fulfills the following equation:
T = axesRotation(sequence, angles)
The rotation angles are returned in the range
-p <= angles[i] <= p
There are two solutions for "angles[1]" in this range. Via the third argument guessAngle1 (default = 0) the returned solution is selected such that |angles[1] - guessAngle1| is minimal. The orientation object T may be in a singular configuration, i.e., there is an infinite number of angle values leading to the same T. The returned solution is selected by setting angles[1] = guessAngle1. Then angles[2] and angles[3] can be uniquely determined in the above range.
Note, that input argument sequence has the restriction that only values 1,2,3 can be used and that sequence[1] ≠ sequence[2] and sequence[2] ≠ sequence[3]. Often used values are:
sequence = {1,2,3} // Cardan angle sequence
= {3,1,3} // Euler angle sequence
= {3,2,1} // Tait-Bryan angle sequence

T = TransformationMatrices.from_nxy(n_x, n_y);
It is assumed that the two input vectors n_x and n_y are resolved in frame 1 and are directed along the x and y axis of frame 2 (i.e., n_x and n_y are orthogonal to each other). The function returns the orientation object T to rotate from frame 1 to frame 2.
The function is robust in the sense that it returns always
an orientation object T, even if n_y is not orthogonal to n_x.
This is performed in the following way:
If n_x and n_y are not orthogonal to each other, first a unit
vector e_y is determined that is orthogonal to n_x and is lying
in the plane spanned by n_x and n_y. If n_x and n_y are parallel
or nearly parallel to each other, a vector e_y is selected
arbitrarily such that e_x and e_y are orthogonal to each other.
