Mars nutation resonance due to Free Inner Core Nutation [PDF]
The rotational normal modes of the planet Mars are computed using a numerical approach. We deduce the associated resonances in the nutations induced by the external gravitational forcing from the Sun, Phobos, and Deimos. In particular, the influence of a possible solid inner core inside a liquid core is investigated.

The Dynamics of Plant Nutation [PDF]
Abstract In this article we advance a cutting-edge methodology for the study of the dynamics of plant movements of nutation. Our approach, unlike customary kinematic analyses of shape, period, or amplitude, is based on three typical signatures of adaptively controlled processes and motions, as reported in the ...

Nutation resonance in ferromagnets [PDF]
The inertial dynamics of magnetization in a ferromagnet is investigated theoretically. The analytically derived dynamic response upon microwave excitation shows two peaks: ferromagnetic and nutation resonances. The exact analytical expressions of frequency and linewidth of the magnetic nutation resonance are deduced from the frequency dependent ...

About the Free and Forced Nutation: The Daily Nutation [PDF]
To explain the nutation phenomenon, Euler chose a geocentric frame of coordinates to present his dynamical equations. In accordance with his formulas, the nutation is caused by a momentum relative to the Earth's center, due to certain external forces. Further, Poinsot presented a special case of the Euler's equations, when any momentum of those certain

Nutation and Reference Frame [PDF]
The reference frames are of fundamental importance in all kinds of the precession and nutation studies involving the theory, the coordinate transformation and the observations. The aim of this paper is to review all the frames used in such studies and to lead to a better consistency between them in order that theory and reductions of observations be ...

The Earth's Constitution and the Nutations [PDF]
The theoretical researches on this subject were first developed in a consistent theory, in 1765, by Euler, who studied the theory of the motion of a rotating rigid body. Bradley shortly before, in 1737, had discovered the first forced nutation, with a period of 18.6 years, which was explained by d'Alembert.

Nutation and the Oppolzer's Terms [PDF]
Two fundamental frames of reference are used in the study of the rotation of the Earth: the nonrotating celestial coordinate system XYZ attached to the directions to stars and/or extragalactic sources, and the terrestrial coordinate system xyz attached in “a prescribed way” to several points (observatories) on the surface of the Earth or to the pencil ...

The Calculation of the Nutations [PDF]
It is well known that the knowledge of precession and nutation is essential for the computation of astronomical coordinates and the comparison of values obtained at different dates. It is therefore important to compute the nutations from the best available observations.Unfortunately, there are not many long series of reliable observations that can be ...

Nutation in Space and Diurnal Nutation in the Case of an Elastic Earth [PDF]
In order to improve the representation of nutation, the effect of elasticity of the Earth on the nutation in space and diurnal nutation of the terrestrial rotation axis is considered and its amplitude is evaluated for the principal terms. The choice between several methods taking this effect into account is discussed.
