In order to study the rotational behavior of granular materials, rotation averaging methods are required. Most of the existing rotation averaging methods are only for 2D cases and limited by the shape, position and size of the averaging volumes. Hence, a general rotation averaging method is proposed in this paper. Our approach is simple yet works for both 2D and 3D cases with very little restriction. The performance of this method is shown by both hypothetical examples and DEM simulations of plane strain tests with different boundary conditions.
