Optimal Deceleration of a Rotating Asymmetrical Body in a Resisting Medium

  • Published:
International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

The time-optimal deceleration of a dynamically asymmetric body is studied using nondimensional variables, which makes it possible to obtain a multi-parameter system of equations of motion. A vector hodograph of the angular momentum is modeled in a three-dimensional space for different values of the system parameters. It is concluded that certain ratios between the problem parameters are needed for the optimal deceleration of the body.
