The Earth's Motion of Rotation (Classic Reprint): Including the Theory of Precession and Nutation: Including the Theory of Precession and Nutation (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Inhaltsangabe
This book presents a rigorous and comprehensive study of planetary rotation, delving into the fundamental principles that govern the motion of planets around fixed points. It builds upon the groundwork laid by renowned astronomer Pierre-Simon Laplace, providing an accessible and comprehensive guide to planetary rotation within the framework of rigid body dynamics. The author offers a thorough examination of the complex interplay between gravitational forces and rotational motion, utilizing advanced mathematical techniques to derive precise equations for calculating planetary elements. Through these equations, the book empowers readers to accurately determine the orientation and velocity of planets in space. Its in-depth analysis sheds new light on the stability of planetary axes and the intriguing phenomenon of precession and nutation, providing a deeper understanding of the celestial mechanics that shape our solar system.

PREFACE. I~ offering to the student a treatment of the Problem of the earth's rotation somewhat different from that whieh has been usually given in elementary text-books, a few words of explanation are necessal·y. The FJRST PART consists of an application of the method of the variation of clements to the general problem of rotation. That the fanTIuIal for calculating these clements are identical in the motions both of translation and rotation, appeared so remarkable, that it might be well to present the latter in a form easily accessible. .Af3 far as I a.m aware, an elementary investigation of these formulre bas not yet been given; in attempting to' supply this, I ha.ve_adopted a method somewhat similar to that which I have given for the correspouding equations of the motion of translation, in an Elementary Trreatise on the Planetary Theory. 1'he striking analogy, thus developed, between the solutions of problems, in appearance so dissimilar, may, I -hope, lead to a
