    Sep 4, 2021 · The discussion focuses on the Intermediate Axis Theorem, emphasizing the instability of rotation about the middle axis. It highlights that when analyzing a surface of fixed energy, there are …

  4. Intuition Behind Intermediate Axis Theorem in an Ideal Setting

    Sep 2, 2023 · The discussion centers on the Intermediate Axis Theorem, specifically questioning the stability of rotation around the intermediate principal axis of a rigid body with distinct moments of …

  5. Intermediate axis theorem - why can't we have exponential decay?

    Apr 4, 2023 · So my question is: why can't axis 1 and axis 3 both have exponentially decaying solutions instead of exponentially growing solutions when rotating near the intermediate axis?
