Dear all,
I am looking for an implementation of dual number algebra, i.e. the
algebra of the numbers x + i y with the dual unit i with the property
i^2=0.
We are working on the 3D kinematics of the human knee joint and apply
dual quaternion algebra. It would be nice and time-saving if there was a
Mathematica package already available.
Regards,
Stefan
