Description

Numerical solution of the Euler's equations for a disk rolling on a plane without skidding. Here, the spin of the disk is low and it is rolling unstably, falling on its sides and making a figure-of-eight. Red line shows the trajectory of the point of contact disk-surface. Black line shows the trajectory of the disk's center.
