How does a heavy symmetric top rise?

Abstract

The rise of the top is studied by considering slipping friction. For this case, equations of motion are obtained by using Euler equations for a heavy symmetric top with a hemispherical peg. Different situations are considered to see how the rise takes place, which can help understand the rise of the top.
