INVESTIGATION OF THE EVOLUTION EQUATIONS OF THE AXISYMMETRIC BODY WITH

Abstract

In this article we consider mutually gravitating non-stationary two bodies: first body is «central», it is a sphere with a spherical density distribution, the second body is «satellite», which has an axisymmetric dynamic structure and form. Newtonian force interaction is characterized by an approximate expression of the force function, which takes into account the second harmonic. The differential equation of translational-rotational motion of the axisymmetric body is derived with variable mass and variable size in a relative coordinate system. The axes of the own coordinate system for nonstationary two bodies coincides with the main axes of inertia and this position remains unchanged during evolution. The mass of bodies are varied isotropically in the different rates. The problem is investigated by methods perturbation theory. The equations of secular perturbations of translational-rotational motion of satellite are deduced in the analogues osculating elements Delaunay-Andoyer. The solutions of the differential equations of the perturbed motion are obtained by the numerical method and the graphs are constructed using the Wolfram Mathematica package.
