Abstract
In this article an analytical solution of equations of motion of a rigid disk of finite thickness rolling on its edge on a perfectly rough horizontal plane under the action of gravity is given. The solution is given in terms of Gauss hypergeometric functions. The integrability results are used to construct various bifurcation diagrams of the steady motion of the disk. The bifurcations of the steady motion of a disk on a rough plane complements the author's bifurcation analysis of the steady motion of the disk on a smooth plane ( [M. Batista, Steady motion of a rigid disk of finite thickness on a horizontal plane, Int. J. Non-Linear Mech. 41 (4) (2006) 605–621]).
