Foam::EulerCoordinateRotation
Description
A coordinateRotation defined in the z-x-y Euler convention.
A coordinateRotation defined in the z-x-z (intrinsic) Euler convention.
The 3 rotations are defined in the Euler intrinsic convention
(around Z, around X' and around Z'').
The order of the parameter arguments matches this rotation order.
The 3 rotations are defined in the Euler convention
(around Z, around X' and around Z').
For reference and illustration, see

Note, however, that it is the reverse transformation
(local->global) that is defined here.
