Modifications/clarifications
Notice
Change from REXS version 1.4
Up to and including REXS 1.4, the REXS specification contained requirements for the consistency and completeness of REXS models. These are omitted from REXS 1.5, as the REXS specification itself should allow for a wide range of modeling options and modeling depths without being overly restrictive. This flexible base specification can be supplemented by modeling guidelines which define additional boundary conditions for specific applications.
Notice
Change from REXS version 1.4
Clarification: the viewing direction or "left" and "right" can be defined separately for each component which has a coordinate system. In particular, the u-axis of a component on a shaft does not necessarily need to point in the same direction as the u-axis of the shaft itself.
