Obliquity Evolution

Obliquity Evolution is a theoretical construct in celestial mechanics that models the long-term variations in the axial tilt of a planet due to gravitational interactions with other bodies, distinguishing it from other orbital element changes by specifically characterizing the temporal dynamics of rotational axis orientation in the context of secular perturbations.
