if the axis of rotation of a body is itself rotating about a second axis, that body is said to be precessing about the second axis. A motion in which the second Euler angle changes is called nutation
The Euler angles, including the precession angle, nutation angle and spin angle, are utilized to study the distribution profiles of the orientation for ellipsoidal particles.
