An analytical technique using a symbolic representation of the coordinate transformation for a rotation of axes is presented. The representation has the advantages of a signal flow diagram and yet retains the properties of a transformation matrix. A sign convention and the characteristics of the symbolic representation are defined. Examples are given which illustrate application of the technique to several typical problems encountered with rotating coordinate systems.
