dealii::Tensor<2, spacedim> ImmersX::detail::reference_to_physical_rotation(const dealii::Tensor<1, spacedim> &tangent)

Return the proper orthogonal map from the reference frame to a frame whose last coordinate direction is tangent.

The reference vertical is e_y in two dimensions and e_z in three dimensions. The anti-parallel three-dimensional case is assigned the deterministic half-turn about e_x.
