<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a rotation angle calculation method, its device and its program capable of accurately calculating a rotation angle including a rotative direction. <P>SOLUTION: On the basis that an interval between a fixed point NO and a measurement point Ne of a final form We is divided into a plurality of factors, connection points of these factors and the fixed point and the measurement point are set as each node NO to Ne, and a tangent vector at a measurement point of an initial form Ws is set as a standard tangent vector Vs, while a tangent vector at each node of the final form is set as each tangent vector VO to Ve. Then, an angle made by each tangent vector at each node that is adjacent to the other including the rotative direction is calculated as each angle αi, and these angles are summed up to calculate the rotation angle θ at the measurement point including the rotative direction. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
