Expand description
Applies the effects of gyroscopic motion to the given angular velocity.
Gyroscopic motion is the tendency of a rotating object to maintain its axis of rotation unless acted upon by an external torque. It manifests as objects with non-uniform angular inertia tensors seemingly wobbling as they spin in the air or on the ground.
Gyroscopic motion is important for realistic spinning behavior, and for simulating gyroscopic phenomena such as the Dzhanibekov effect.
