Analyzing the Motion of Symmetric Tops Without Recurring to Analytical Mechanics
Characterizing the dynamics of heavy symmetric tops is essential in several fields of theoretical and applied physics. Accordingly, a series of approaches have been developed to describe their motion. In this paper, we present a derivation based on elementary geometric considerations carried out in...
