Abstract
We applied the Fourier approximation in studying the dynamics of very young asteroid families (younger than 1.6 Myr). As the output, we obtained a new system of approximated orbital elements, which is comparable to classical elements. We have found only one significant discrepancy in the perihelion longitude rate of the Rampo family's main member. Moreover, we extended our system of approximated elements by including amplitudes and frequencies of the periodic variations of angular elements.
