The scientific and organizing commit­ tee consisted of Professor F. Buckens (Louvain), K. Ma­ gnus (Munchen), L. Maunder (Newcastle-upon-Tyne) and P.Y. Willems (Louvain). A total number of 36 papers were presented and 65 par­ ticipants attended. Of these 11 came from Belgium, 2 from Bulgaria, 2 from Denmark, 2 from Finland, 12 from France, 17 from Germany, 1 from Israel, 1 from Japan, 3 from Ne­ therlands, 1 from Sweden, 12 from U.K. and 1 from U.S.A. Participants came both from industry and universities. Especially the European Aerospace Industry was well re­ presented. There were sessions on the various aspects of rotatio­ nal dynamics. In all the sessions, both theoretical and practical aspects were considered. The sessions were de­ voted to Instruments (theory and technology, in particu­ lar for dynamically-tuned gyroscopes), Rotating Mecha­ nisms, Application of System Theory to Rotational Dyna­ mics (especially optimal control and estimation theory), Spacecraft Attitude Dynamics (influence of elastic defor­ mation, presence of fuel vessels, stability analysis and VI pointing accuracy). The presence of the participants on an isolated campus turned out to be beneficial and this developed a favora­ ble atmosphere for open discussions efficient work and friendly social activities. We are very grateful to Springer-Verlag for publishing these proceedings in book form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783642808463\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eEuromech 38 Colloquium Louvain-La-Neuve, Belgium, 3–5 September 1973\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783642808463","offer_id":39445008580701,"sku":"9783642808463","price":106.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/70540d5f-73c6-4236-bfe3-c01ad7d5b011.jpg?v=1761717842","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/gyrodynamics-euromech-38-colloquium-louvain-la-neuve-belgium-3-5-september-1973-von-p-y-willems-hrsg","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
