Lecture

Kinematics and Dynamics of Rigid Bodies

Description

This lecture covers the concepts of inertia tensor, Euler equations, and angular momentum evaluation in rigid bodies. It explains how the moment of forces affects the conservation of angular momentum and the equations of motion. The lecture also delves into the principal axes of inertia and the precession of angular momentum. Additionally, it discusses the application of Poisson's formulas and the analysis of spectral theorems in determining the inertial properties of rigid bodies.
