Özet
In the present paper we obtain the timelike Euler parameters of a Lorentzian orthogonal matrix in Lorentz space L3 = ℝ2,1 by using Lorentzian matrix multiplication. Then, by using the timelike Euler parameters of a given rotation in a split quaternion formulation, we produce split quaternion equation of a rotation motion in L3. Moreover the components of a dual split quaternion are obtained by replacing the timelike L-Euler parameters with their split dual versions. © 2011 Springer Basel AG.
