Towards a Prototype of a Spherical Tippe Top

Figure 11

Different tippe top regimes in function of the position of the midpoint of the setscrew. The black lines are , and the blue curve is , the red curve is . The physical parameters for the construction are here: radius of the ABS spherical shell mm, thickness of the shell mm, radius of the cylindrical rod mm, radius of the (iron) weight mm, height of the weight mm, semi-axis of the ellipse generating the torus mm and mm.
