Investigation of the Rotational Dynamics of a Two-layer Earth Model under the in Uence of an Oceanic Gyre, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Jalali, Mir Abbas (Supervisor)
Abstract
The planet earth has a variety of periodic motions in space, with periods varying from a day to thousands of years. The essence of studying the rotational motion of our planet is closely related to various phenomena such as, the long term variation of the earth’s climate, volcanic activities, ice ages, earth’s past dynamics, etc. furthermore, understanding the precise motion of the earth is an essential part of our astronomical observations. One of the many kinds of rotational motions, which has attracted many attentions is called Chandler wobble. Any irregularly shaped solid body rotating about some axis that is not aligned with its figure axis will wobble as it rotates. Although it has...
