Rotational Dynamics of Deformable Ellipsoids with Applications to Asteroids Book Description:
Finally, the volume-averaged method is used to study planetary fly-bys of asteroid's The asteroid is modeled as a rigid-granular material. Results comparable to published numerical simulations are obtained. Investigating planetary fly-bys is important because they too offer an insight into the interior of asteroids.
