Title On the dynamics of the Thompson top (tippe top) on the plane with real dry friction

Abstract There is an extensive literature on Thompson top dynamics. A rather detailed bibliography can be found in [1].

The most important aspect in the construction of a mathematical model of the tippe top is the choice of the character of interaction between the top and the supporting plane at the point of contact. The no-slip condition is most often used for bodies rolling on rigid surfaces, which results in a nonholonomic statement of problem.

Contensou [2] observed that this setting is inadequate. In particular, he showed that if one applies Coulomb's dry friction law in differential form with subsequent integration over the contact area, then, for sufficiently large angular spin velocities, the resultant vector of dry sliding friction forces bears resemblance to viscous friction.

A complete model of dry friction in the contact (including not only the resultant force but also the resultant torque) without restrictions on the sliding kinematics was constructed in [3]. This model is used in the present paper, which studies local problems (stability of stationary rotations) as well as the global behavior of the top, including the complete inversion phenomenon surprising curious observers.
