Evolution of the motion of a heavy symmetric body carrying viscoelastic bars
Abstract
The angular variable averaging method is used to obtain and analyze equations describing evolution of the motion of a symmetric body rotating about a fixed point. The body center of mass coincides with the fixed point; the body supports, in the equatorial plane of the inertia ellipsoid, two viscoelastic bars subjected to deformations due to inertia and gravity forces. The motion of the solid body is described in terms of the Andoyer-Depri canonic variables.
