Dynamics of a thin disk rolling on a plane

Summary

edit
Description
English: In the absence of dissipation, a thin disk rolling without slipping on a flat surface will recover after each fall. Notice that this system has non-holonomic constraints, so it can't be solved using a Lagrangian/Hamiltonian formalism.
