Abstract
The book presents a unified and well-developed approach to the dynamics of angular motions of rigid bodies subjected to perturbation torques of different physical nature. It contains both the basic foundations of the rigid body dynamics and of the asymptotic method of averaging. The rigorous approach based on the averaging procedure is applicable to bodies with arbitrary ellopsoids of inertia. Action of various perturbation torques, both external (gravitational, aerodynamical, solar pressure) and internal (due to viscous fluid in tanks, elastic and visco-elastic properties of a body) is considered in detail. The book can be used by researchers, engineers and students working in attitude dynamics of spacecraft.

On a new type of solving procedure for Euler–Poisson equations (rigid body rotation over the fixed point)

TL;DR: In this paper, the Euler-Poisson equations are reduced to a system of three nonlinear ordinary differential equations of first order in regard to three functions, and the proper elegant approximate solution has been obtained as a set of quasi-periodic cycles via re-inversing the proper elliptical integral.
