Physics related functionality #150

Description

@pekpuglia

Hello,

I am interested in this package for quaternion applications to spatial rotations and rigid body motion. In particular, I am interested in the following capabilities:

  • convenience functions for converting to and from vectors
  • conversions to and from other representations of rotations such as DCMs and axis-angle
  • time derivative of quaternions with body-frame angular velocity and inertial frame angular velocity
  • matrix representations of common quaternion operations, somewhat in line with matrices G and E in this paper: arxiv

I know some of this functionality is available in other packages (notably, ReferenceFrameRotations) but it would be nice to have a really complete quaternion package for Julia. Currently, this package seems oriented to a pure-math public.

Would there be interest in adding (some) of those capabilities?
