Evolution of Motions of a Rigid Body About its Center of Mass

Evolution of Motions of a Rigid Body About its Center of Mass by Felix L. Chernousko, Leonid D. Akulenko, Dmytro D. Leshchenko.

The book presents a unified and well-developed approach to the dynamics of angular motions of rigid bodies subjected to perturbation torques of different physical nature. It contains both the basic foundations of the rigid body dynamics and of the asymptotic method of averaging. The rigorous approac...
