Abstract
The Earth with a rigid core and a rigid mantle is considered and a recovering force is assumed between the constituents.The equations of motion in canonical form are derived in terms of the Andoyer's variables. Applying the perturbation theory, the phenomenon of the polar motion is investigated.The polar motion obtained with this model is a circular motion of the rotational axis on the mantle's surface with its radius gradually changing.
