  NIST: Methane Symmetry Operations - Proper rotations
Thus, proper rotations correspond to pure permutation operations, with the permuted indices related by equation (eq.
Figure 3 illustrates: (a) an arbitrary instantaneous configuration of the methane molecule, (b) the transformation of vibrational displacement vectors required for the point group operation C
It can be seen that the complete transformation consists of a rotation of the vibrational displacement vectors through 120° in a left-handed sense about the (1,1,1) direction, followed by a rotation of the molecule-fixed axis system (containing the equilibrium positions and attached displacement vectors) through 120° in a right-handed sense about the (1,1,1) direction.

  MOTOR ASSISTED SWIVEL - Patent 20050076847
A switching mechanism attached to the tether is used to determine rotation of the tether and to activate the motor for rotation of the swivel.
A rotation plate 110 is connected to the output end of the swivel 140 in such a manner that rotation of the rotation plate results in rotation of the output part of the swivel 140.
The swivel rotation section 100 requires a swivel, a mechanism for connecting the swivel to a motor for driving one or both parts of the swivel, and a sensor for detecting rotation of the tether and activating the motor.

 Rotation group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The composition of two rotations is a rotation, and every rotation has a unique inverse which is again a rotation.
The group of all proper and improper rotations in n dimensions is called the orthogonal group, O(n), and the subgroup of proper rotations is called the special orthogonal group, SO(n).
In general, the rotation group of an object is the symmetry group within the group of direct isometries; in other words, the intersection of the full symmetry group and the group of direct isometries.

 The SPORT Clinic -Throwing Mechanics
Overstriding is a common fault that reduces proper hip rotation and detracts from the velocity of the throw.
Rotation of the hips before the trunk is important because it serves to stretch the muscles across the trunk eventually causing these muscles to contract more forcefully.
This action is technically called inward rotation of the humerus, this is the same movement that occurs when an extended arm is turned from a position where the palm of the hand faces the sky to where the palm faces the ground.

 Tire Retread Information Bureau | Tires from A-Z - Tire Rotation
Irregular or uneven tire treadwear patterns may be arrested and/or reversed by proper rotation of the tire to another vehicle wheel position (and possibly reversing the direction of rotation).
This rotation should be done when the difference in tread depth between the forward and rear drive tires is between 3 and 4/32nds.
Rotating tires at this point will also prevent excessive slip, loss of traction, and differential fight due to mismatched tire diameters between the axles and eliminate some wear and tear on the driveline.

 Crop Rotation Adds Value to Irrigation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
As the demand for water grows and available supplies are used, crop producers face increasing competition to share their common, finite water resource with residential, manufacturing and livestock sectors of the economy.
The rotations utilized two varieties of cotton and one variety of grain sorghum planted on 40-inch rows.
In the harshest year, 2003, their cotton-grain sorghum rotation yields were 26 percent higher than continuous cotton yields, used 19 percent less water and required less tillage to prevent blowing sand.

 AGR-91 CROPLAND ROTATIONS FOR KENTUCKY
When the rotation has been fully established, each acre produces one-third acre of corn (for silage or grain), one-third acre of small grain (for silage or grain), one-third acre of first-year red clover, and one-third acre of second-year red clover.
This 2-year rotation makes it possible to grow more total corn per unit of area used than in the 3-year rotation and is more suitable to fields with a less severe erosion hazard.
Corn-Alfalfa Rotation - This rotation, while of longer duration because of the longer life of an alfalfa stand, is useful because of the high yields of high quality forage produced.

 Kiss Shoulder Pain Goodbye: Proper Technique - The Key to Preventing and Relieving Shoulder Pain
Excessive Medial Rotation During Recovery - if the arm is rotated so that the back of the hand is rotated towards the body's mid-line and the palm is facing away from the body, shoulder muscles constrict a "free recovery" and cause unnecessary muscle contraction and pain.
As the hand moves forward, the body rotates so that when the hand reaches the front of the front of the stroke, the opposite hip and shoulder are facing the ceiling or sky.
Without moving the elbow, rotate the hand so the finger tips face directly towards the bottom of the pool, then move the hand and forearm backward until they reach the elbow which is held high, rotate the hand inward and forward until it reaches the starting point.
