| Abstract |
Four modifications of equations of rotary motion of a rigid body
allowing the separation of variables into slow and fast ones are
constructed. These equations are similar to Beletskii-Chernousko
equations. Unlike the latter equations, the equations constructed
in the present paper utilize
Rodrigues-Hamilton parameters and s-parameters (modified
Rodrigues-Hamilton parameters) instead of Eulerian angles.
These equations can be used for both analytical and numerical
investigation of the rotary motion. For the numerical
analysis, the equations constructed should be preferred to
Beletskii-Chernousko equations for that reason that they
do not contain trigonometric functions and singularities associated
with the fast variables and, in addition, two of the systems constructed
do not contain trigonometric functions and singularities associated
with the slow variables. It is established that, in contrast to
the common opinion that s-parameters are suitable for the
description of only libration motions and rotations by small angles,
these variables are also quite applicable for the description
of the rotary motion of the body. |
