VXt , VYt , VZt , Vr | Translational velocity
components in the local frame and rotational velocity about the
axis. (Real) |

Comments
- If frame_ID is not zero, the initial velocities are applied with respect to this local frame.
- Once
is expressed in the global system, the
velocities are initialized with respect to:
(1) Where,- Vector defining the rotation axis
- Represents a point on the axis and is set as the origin of the frame.
