hmtoggle_plus1Comments
1.Moving skew defines a local coordinate system, defined by three nodes. At each time, the actual orientation of the skew is recalculated according to the actual position of these nodes.
2.For moving skews, the skew system is moving and is defined by node identifiers node_ID1, node_ID2 and node_ID3.

node_ID1 and node_ID2 define X’

node_ID1 and node_ID3 define Y'’

Z' = X' ^ Y''

Y' = Z' ^ X'

The skew is defined by X' , Y' , and Z'.

3.When defining some conditions with respect to the skew in cylindrical coordinate system, the axis of the cylindrical coordinate system is assumed to pass through node N1.
