    Hi Soraya

    The equation is like a general sinusoidal waveform equation. For translation, it will be

    x = A sin(2*pi*f + phi)

    where A is amplitude/displacement magnitude, f is frequency, and phi is phase angle/offset.

    Similar equation can be written for rotation also.

    Hope this helps.
