Inertia Tensor: Main Axes and Principal Moments

Description

This lecture covers the concept of the inertia tensor, focusing on the main axes and principal moments of inertia. It explains how to diagonalize the matrix representing the inertia tensor, the relationship with the inertia frame, and the symmetric properties. The lecture also discusses the application of balancing rotating solids, such as car wheels and turbines, for static and dynamic equilibrium.
