For this purpose Deprit's variables are introduced to establish the Hamiltonian structure for this problem. The theoretical result on the chaotic motion of the gyrostat is verified by numerical computation of Poincare section. The study shows that: (a) By introducing Deprit's canonical variables, one can caress the Hamiltonian of the system of high order in a sample form, rendering it suitable for the application Of Melnikov's method. (b) The influence of the gravitational torque on the gyrostat can be regarded as perturbations to the torque-free motion of the gyrostat. When the angular momentum of the rotor h_2 is relatively small, there exist two saddle points in the phase plane for the torque-free motion of the gyrostat, which are connected by two heteroclinic orbits. Under the perturbation of the gravitational force, this highly degenerated structure breaks and chaos occurs near the heteroclinic orbits. As the perturbation increases, the chaotic area is enlarged, as shown in Figr.3(b), (c). It means that the motion of the system is chaotic in the sense of Smaie's horseshoe. (c) The rotor speed has obvious effect on the motion Of the gyrostat. As the rotor speed increases, the chaotic area gradually contracts and a chaotic motion will turn into a regular motion, as shown in Fign.3(c), (d). So the chaotic motion can be suppressed by increasing the rotor speed. %K spacecraft attitude dynamics %K gyrostat %K chaos %K Melnikov's method %K Poincare map
