• In compact form
𝜔𝑏𝑏𝑖 = 𝑆 Θ Θ
S(ϴ) obviously depends on which Euler angle sequence is used, and if one
integrates the expression above one obtains Wx, Wy, Wz.
Attitude Kinematics
The last expression represents the relation between the time variation
of Euler Angles (ϴ1 , ϴ2 , ϴ3 )and the angular velocities Wx, Wy, Wz.

Attitude Kinematics
Careful examination of 1/S shows that some of the elements of
this matrix become large (infinite) when cos(ϴ2) approaches π/2.
Even though the angular velocity may be small, the Euler angle
rates can become quite large. For a different Euler angle
sequence, the kinematic singularity occurs at a different point.
