The phrase "axis opposite to" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to geometry, physics, or discussions involving orientation or positioning.
Example: "In a Cartesian coordinate system, the y-axis is opposite to the x-axis."
Alternatives: "axis contrary to" or "axis facing away from".
When data is acquired using the laser in the vertical position, the x-axis and y-axis are opposite to those in the horizontal mode, as Fig. 2 illustrates.
To evaluate the axis difference between corneal and internal astigmatism in patients with cataract, because if the axis of corneal astigmatism is opposite to the axis of internal astigmatism, the amount of refractive astigmatism will increase after cataract surgery owing to disappearance of the neutralizing effect of the crystalline lens on corneal astigmatism.
A-amylose single crystals are polar objects that grow in the direction of the reducing end of the amylose chains, and the c-axis is oriented opposite to the growth direction.
One end of a polar axis is different from its other end; when mechanical stress is applied on such an axis, opposite electrical charges develop on each end.
(z_mathrm{G}) axis: opposite direction of gravity.
In order for the coordinate system to remain right-handed, the x3 axis must be directed opposite to the ambient magnetic field.
If the subjects could tolerate additional stimulation, i.e. their motion-sickness score was <16, following a 2 min rest, they were then exposed to a second off-vertical axis rotation in the direction opposite to that of the first off-vertical axis rotation.
In this study, it is parallel and opposite to the W axis. D is the distance between the observation network and the trench axis.
The coordinate system is centered at the Moon, with the x-axis is directed toward the Sun, so the solar wind flows opposite to the x-axis.
In this study, it is parallel and opposite to the W axis. Fig. 2. Asperity distribution on the plate interface.
