Analyzing the dynamics of a charged rotating rigid body under constant torques.

Scientific Reports 2024 April 30
This study explores the dynamical rotary motion of a charged axisymmetric spinning rigid body (RB) under the effect of a gyrostatic moment (GM). The influence of transverse and invariable body fixed torques (IBFTs), and an electromagnetic force field, is also considered. Euler's equations of motion (EOM) are utilized to derive the regulating system of motion for the problem in a suitable formulation. Due to the lack of torque exerted along the spin axis and the nearly symmetrical nature of the RB, the spin rate is nearly unchanged. Assuming slight angular deviations of the spin axis relative to a fixed direction in space, it is possible to derive approximate analytical solutions (AS) in closed form for the attitude, translational, and rotational movements. These concise solutions that are expressed in complex form are highly effective in analyzing the maneuvers performed by spinning RBs. The study focuses on deriving the AS for various variables including angular velocities, Euler's angles, angular momentum, transverse displacements, transverse velocities, axial displacement, and axial velocity. The graphical simulation of the subsequently obtained solutions is presented to show their precision. Furthermore, the positive impacts that alterations in the body's parameters have on the motion's behavior are presented graphically. The corresponding phase plane curves, highlighting the influence of different values in relation to the electromagnetic force field, the GM, and the IBFTs are drawn to analyze the stability of the body's motion. This study has a significant role in various scientific and engineering disciplines. Its importance lies in its ability to optimize mechanical systems, explain celestial motion, and enhance spacecraft performance.
