Derivation of the analytical solution for torque free motion of a rigid body
Tohoku University, Japan, 2005
Abstract:

In this report the rotational motion of a single rigid body in the absence of external forces and torques is considered. The dynamic equations governing this motion are integrated in closed form. Only the general case of an unsymmetrical rigid body is considered. A Matlab implementation is available for download here.
