Un solide est un corps dont les différents points restent à des distances constantes les uns des autres au cours du mouvement. Un solide pouvant se mouvoir librement a sa position déterminée par la donnée de six paramètres : la position d’un point (trois coordonnées) et trois angles qui, dans le cas général, sont les angles d’Euler et, plus souvent, des angles adaptés au solide (par exemple pour un bateau, des angles correspondant au changement de cap, au tangage et au roulis). On dit que, dans le cas le plus général de mouvement, le solide possède six degrés de liberté. Des liaisons peuvent réduire les mouvements possibles et, en conséquence, diminuer le nombre de degrés de liberté; ainsi un solide en rotation autour d’un axe fixe à un degré de liberté. 3, record 8, French, - degr%C3%A9%20de%20libert%C3%A9

Gyroscopes are classified by the number of degrees of freedom that they possess, i.e., they are single-degree-of-freedom or two-degree-of-freedom. ... a gyroscope supported by one gimbal only has the position of its spin axis determined by one angle and is therefore called a single-degree-of-freedom gyroscope.
