Abstract

The derivation of Synge[2] for the finite rotation formula in terms of Euler parameter is put into tensor form. Hence a further clarification of the geometric meaning of the orthogonal transformation obtained in the author's paper[7] is made. The tensor properties of rotation axis vector are also discussed. By means of the method of co-moving coordinate system established in[8], [9], we explain the gyromagnetic effect, and derive a simple formula for calculating body couple which is induced by magnetization.
