In this paper, Galilean orthogonal matrices in and are obtained with the help of unit quaternions. Moreover, Galilean orthogonal matrices in and are acquired. These matrices produce Galilelan motions in Galilean spaces. We investigate the invariance of the plane where shear motion is acting in Galilean and pseudo-Galilean spaces. Additionally, related examples of matrices that belong to both spaces are provided. With a similar method, dual Galilean orthogonal matrices are obtained by using unit dual quaternions. Finally, we strengthen our work with examples and draw their figures to explore visual representations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this study, we are interested in the way quaternions to represent 3D and 4D rotations in Lorentzian space. We give a new method for obtaining a rotation matrix in Lorentzian space with the help of a unit quaternion. Furthermore, we prove that rotation matrices correspond to a quaternion leave invariant the same axis in Euclidean and Lorentzian space. Then, we introduce a semi‐orthogonal matrix representation of a quaternion curve in 4D space. Moreover, we provide applications and draw their figures to explore visual representations. Finally, due to the importance of the dual space in kinematics, robotics, and other areas related, we carry this work into their dual spaces by using a dual quaternion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract We discuss existence of factorizations with linear factors for (left) polynomials over certain associative real involutive algebras, most notably over Clifford algebras. Because of their relevance to kinematics and mechanism science, we put particular emphasis on factorization results for quaternion, dual quaternion and split quaternion polynomials. A general algorithm ensures existence of a factorization for generic polynomials over division rings but we also consider factorizations for non-division rings. We explain the current state of the art, present some new results and provide examples and counter examples. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
