Chapter 5: Mechanics of Rigid Bodies

https://doi.org/10.1142/9789811238284_0005Cited by:0 (Source: Crossref)

Abstract:

A rigid body is a system of n point masses m_i at positions r_i such that all pairwise distances

| r_{i} - r_{j} | = c_{i j} = c o n s t

$| r_{i} - r_{j} | = c_{i j} = c o n s t$

are kept fixed at constant values. Rigid bodies, thus, are (idealized) models of solid objects whose internal motion (vibration, torsion, etc.) can be neglected…
