The asymptotic solutions for the motion of a charged symmetric gyrostat in the irrational frequency case

Abstract

AbstractThe primary objective of this study is to explore the spatial rotary movements of a symmetrically charged rigid body (RB) that is rotating around a fixed point, akin to Lagrange’s scenario as a novel scenario where its center of mass experiences a slight displacement from the symmetry dynamic axis. The body’s movement is presumed to be affected by a gyrostatic moment and a force from an electromagnetic field, attributed to the presence of a located point charge on this axis. The regulating equations of motion that are pertaining to the equations Euler–Poisson are solved through the utilization of Poincaré’s small parameter method along with its adaptations when the scenario of irrational frequencies is considered. The three angles of Euler are derived and graphed to ascertain the body’s position at any point throughout the motion. The temporal evolutions of the achieved outcomes are drawn to showcase the significant impact of the selected parameters on the motion. The phase plane diagrams have been generated to illustrate the stability of the body during the motion. The novelty of studying the rotatory motion of a charged RB under these specific conditions lies in the intricate interplay of gyrostatic effects, magnetic interactions, and nonlinear dynamics. This research can push the boundaries of theoretical mechanics and provide valuable insights and tools for both theoretical advancements and practical applications. Moreover, the achieved results from this analysis can be utilized to improve the dynamic performance of diverse engineering applications, particularly those dependent on gyroscopic theory. This includes enhancing the functionality of satellites, compasses, submarines, and automatic pilots used in aircraft. Essentially, the findings have practical implications for optimizing the performance and stability of these systems.
