Experimental observation of stabilization of tippe top spinning on a vibrating plane

This paper presents an experimental study of the motion of a spherical body with a displaced center of mass on a surface undergoing oscillations in the vertical plane. The phenomenon of vibrostabilization of an unstable position in which the center of mass of the body is above the geometric center of the sphere is revealed. The influence of the frequency and amplitude of oscillations of the surface on the stabilization of the unstable position of the motion of the spherical body is analyzed.

Abstract

This paper presents an experimental study of the motion of a spherical body with a displaced center of mass on a surface undergoing oscillations in the vertical plane. The phenomenon of vibrostabilization of an unstable position in which the center of mass of the body is above the geometric center of the sphere is revealed. The influence of the frequency and amplitude of oscillations of the surface on the stabilization of the unstable position of the motion of the spherical body is analyzed.
