Abstract:
The motion of a rigid body about a fixed point in a homogeneous gravitational field is investigated. The body is not dynamically symmetric and its center of gravity lies on the perpendicular, raised from the fixed point, to one of the circular sections of an ellipsoid of inertia. A body with such mass geometry may precess regularly about a nonvertical axis (Grioli’s precession). The problem of the orbital stability of this precession is solved for critical cases of second-order resonance, when terms higher than degree four in the series expansion of the Hamiltonian of the perturbed motion should be taken into account.
