The phrase "axis of inertia" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to physics or engineering, particularly when discussing the distribution of mass in a body and its resistance to rotational motion.
Example: "The axis of inertia plays a crucial role in determining how the object will behave when subjected to external forces."
Alternatives: "moment of inertia axis" or "inertial axis".
Performs layout somersaults about the unstable middle principal axis of inertia with stability provided by passive arm motion.
This paper addresses magnetic attitude control of a satellite with one axis of inertia significantly lower than that of the other two.
During the recovery maneuver, the angular velocity and angular momentum vectors become aligned with the minimum axis of inertia by turning over about 90° in the body frame.
The present paper presents flat-spin recovery maneuvers by means of a body-fixed torque within the plane perpendicular to the maximum principal axis of inertia.
The results indicate that the positioning of the cell-division plane is affected by its boundary confinement: a cell divides in a plane perpendicular to its minimal principal axis of inertia of area.
These are quite different from those obtained in the case when the torque is along the minimum axis of inertia where a minimum torque level is required for a successful recovery.
Lateral torsional buckling (LTB) resistance of an I-beam depends on the minor axis moment of inertia of its compression flange and torsional rigidity of the section.
The two first axis of Co-Inertia analysis explained 76.5% of the genetic co-variation between EcoRI/MspI and EcoRI/HpaII datasets and this association was significantly different from the value expected for random association (P<0.0001).
The long molecular axis was defined as the axis of minimum moment of inertia, which was calculated for each component molecule of E7.
Figure 7 shows the optimised structure of the dye overlaid with the orientation of the calculated TDM for the allowed visible transition (shown in red), along with the orientation of the long molecular axis (shown in blue), calculated here as the minimum moment of inertia axis.
The stability criterion obtained states that the motion is stable if the rotor spins about the principal axis of maximum moment of inertia and the values of the radius of the mercury ring and the height of the damper to the mass center of the gyroscope are restricted in a confined region.
