Finally I have a tentative version of the demonstration based on explicit solution

Dzhanibekov Effect: http://arkadiusz-jadczyk.eu/docs/janiwdp2.nb

Excerpt on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ye-ONo-RixA

Would appreciate comments and suggestions how to improve.

UPDATE

The demonstration was published:

Very cool. I was trying to recall the name of that effect for some time now. Here's another nice video of it in space: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGRWg4aV2mw

Hi,

I have rewritten your program. Fixed the sign in Euler's equations, fixed the rendering of Euler angles, changed the geometry - we have three pairs of masses now, make it interactive, added drawing of the change in orientation. Probably it still have bugs.

Perhaps we can improve it, I think it can be a made into a nice Wolfram's demonstration.

This is really nice, @Arkadiusz Jadczyk! One demonstration already came out of this:

The Intermediate Axis Theorem Applied to a Ping-Pong Paddle Flip-Over

but I think your should try sending this to Demonstrations team to see if they consider it different enough to publish.

This demonstration now mentions this discussion:

Based on work by Mariusz Iwaniuk found at Dzhanibekov Effect or tennis racket theorem

Privet Vitaliy, I am going to change my demonstration using explicit solution formula with Jacobi elliptic functions nad quaternions. That may be new.
POSTED BY: Arkadiusz Jadczyk

Very interesting. Did you find those with Mathematica or have some source like an article?

POSTED BY: Vitaliy Kaurov

One good article is by Cushman, "No polar coordinates"[1] https://www.maths.manchester.ac.uk/~jm/MASESS1/cushman.pdf

Yes, a little messed up moments of inertia, but corrected the "code". I also did simulations in Blender 3D. The results are similar, so as correct. :)

Ps: Change the file extension "Tennis Racet.nb" to "Tennis Racet.blend" . To run the simulation in Blender 3D, press on the keyboard "Alt + A".

In the original model ihave changed the values Ix,Iy,Iz to realistic

  Ix = 5.666666666666667`;
   Iy = 33.666666666666664`;
   Iz = 38.666666666666664`;

Then there is a strange phenomenon - After restart colors Green and Blue change a while before the flip, like in precognition. I do not understand what is the reason? I am not sure if this effect is reproducible.
POSTED BY: Arkadiusz Jadczyk

This strange phenomenon is associated only with animation,because is looped .

I am aware of this video and indeed, the axis parallel to the paddle blade could also be an intermediate axis for some geometries or materials used in the paddle. In my example, I consider the paddle to be made of homogenous material of density 1 and with arbitrary dimensions that may not be realistic compared to real world ping pong equipment. In my example, the axes are crossing at the centroid: the intermediate axis is the phi axis perpendicular to the blade; in the video example it is more than likely the psi axis, parallel to the blade? Both are possible depending on the location of the centroid ( geometry, density distribution, etc...) You can see that the the two largest moments are very close compared to the minimum moment of inertia.enter image description here

I solved the problem. Animation is a solution of 6 equations.

Hello, Mariusz, I am working on a Wolfram Demonstrations based on your idea and the suggestion from Sam Carrettie. I am using a ping pong paddle to demonstrate the "Intermediate Axis Theorem" of which the Dzhanibekov Effect is another example. I am still working out the details but attached is a *.mov file to show the output. Thanks for you post.

Cool but,you did little mistake, you must rotate the Racket about 90 degrees with respect to the axis X.On this video see effect.

See atchment file they will help you.

I found on this site many dynamic simulation of physics.One of them is

  1. Rotation stability of 3D cube. Cube is stable when spinning around either the major or the minor principal axes. This demo illustrates this by solving Euler equations of motion in 3D for zero torque. Select the spin axes, then click on perturbe to see the e?ect.

This is great, thanks for sharing! This can make a nice Demonstration. I am curious if this is also easy in SystemModeler.
