What does E0-E3 represent for a frame?

Hello,

I am trying to check out the outputs of the frame. While I can see the outputs details ( what the variable represents) of telescopic front suspension, rear monoshock through the project browser itself in the outputs tab but there's no output tabs in the frame segment so I am not able to check what does the output variable represents, like from E0 to E3 for the frame. Can Anyone help

Regards

    Hi draucis,

    These are the "euler angles" of the body displacement. This is the "raw" data from MotionSolve presented in a 3-1-3 Euler Angle, ref to different versions of euler angle below: 

    https://rotations.berkeley.edu/the-euler-angle-parameterization/

    If you want other means of plotting the rotation of a body you can create outputs of this. Either as Yaw-Pitch-Roll rotations or as of marker rotations in cartesian coordinates.
