Auto-oscillations during deceleration of a rigid body in a resisting medium

Resumo

Some qualitative analysis is carried out of the rectilinear and spatial problems concerning the motion of a rigid body in a resisting medium.Anonlinearmodel is constructed of impact of the mediumon the rigid body, which takes into account the dependence of the arm of force on the reduced angular velocity of the body. Moreover, the moment of this force itself is also a function of the angle of attack. As was shown by the processing the experimental data on the motion of homogeneous circular cylinders in water, these circumstances should be taken into account in the simulation. The analysis of the plane and spatial models of the interaction of a rigid body with a medium reveal the sufficient conditions of stability of the key regime of motion, i.e., the translational rectilinear deceleration. It is also shown that, under certain conditions, both stable or unstable auto-oscillating regimes can be presented in the system.
