The Rotator Component

A rotative frame along vertical axis

Identification

Description

All components positioned after this one are rotating at frequency 'nu' with
phase 'phase'. Use the Derotator component to put back the model steady.
The rotation is performed w.r.t. the position of the component, along a chosen
main axis (use directon=1 for x, direction=2 for y, direction=3 for z).

Default rotation axis is vertical axis / 'y'.

Example:
R=Rotator(nu=14, phase=0)
...
DR=Derotator(rotator=R)
AT (0,0,0) RELATIVE R
