| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An incompressible viscous fluid in a precessing sphere exhibits a variety of states from laminar to turbulent flows, depending upon two non-dimensional parameters (the Reynolds number and the Poincare number)defined in terms of the sphere radius, the spin angular velocity, the precession angular velocity and the kinematic viscosity of fluid. Here, we examined the structure and the existence condition of the steady flow. An asymptotic analysis was performed to obtain the structure of a pair of vortices localized in the vicinity of the great circle perpendicular to the precession axis. We determined the existence boundary of the steady flow over the whole parameter space by means of direct numerical simulation and asymptotic analysis. Moreover, a series of random reversals of the velocity field was observed.
