The whirling of a spinning top
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 June 2016
Summary
This paper has been compiled because of the applicability of the treatment of the stability of the motion of the common spinning top to the problem of the whirling of rotating shafts, carrying loads of appreciable moments of inertia. This problem is assuming renewed interest and importance, especially in the drives of contra-propeller systems and the more recent high speed prime movers.
