Components for System Centroidal Inertia Measures
When you create a total centroidal inertia measure, you must specify the following options. All components are expressed in the WCS coordinate system.
• Components
◦ Ixx—The component aligned with the X axis in the ground body WCS.
◦ Iyy—The component aligned with the Y axis in the ground body WCS.
◦ Izz—The component aligned with the Z axis in the ground body WCS.
◦ Ixy—The component in the XY plane of the ground body WCS.
◦ Ixz—The component in the XZ plane of the ground body WCS.
◦ Iyz—The component in the YZ plane of the ground body WCS.
• Reference
◦ WCS–Centroidal inertia is calculated at the origin of the ground body WCS.
◦ COM–Centroidal inertia is calculated at the mechanism's center of mass.
