Lecture

Rotation Dynamics: Gyroscopic Effects

Description

This lecture covers the dynamics of rotation, focusing on gyroscopic effects, rotation around fixed and instantaneous axes, and examples. It explores the behavior of non-rigid objects, such as containers filled with granules, and the critical angles for rolling down inclined planes. The lecture also delves into the conservation of energy, maximum elongation, and the dynamics of a cylinder containing granules. Various theoretical, experimental, and simulation studies are discussed, emphasizing the rolling dynamics of containers filled with different granule shapes and sizes. The lecture concludes with practical exercises on solid body dynamics and frictional forces.
