rotatorischer

Rotatorisch is a German adjective meaning related to rotation or rotational motion. It is formed from the noun Rotation with the suffix -isch and is used in technical and scientific texts to describe phenomena, mechanisms, or properties involving rotation around an axis. The attributive form rotatorischer is used before masculine or neuter singular nouns (for example, der rotatorische Mechanismus or das rotatorische System). In feminine or plural contexts the forms change, for instance die rotatorische Bewegung or die rotatorischen Bewegungen.

In physics and engineering, rotatorische concepts describe rotational motion, angular variables, and torques. They appear in

In mathematics and computer science, rotatorische ideas relate to rotation transformations and rotational symmetry, as in

Etymology and usage notes: rotatorisch derives from Latin rotator, via Rotation, with the German adjective-forming suffix
