Popis:	The two dimensional motion of a generally non-circular non-uniform cylinder on a flat horizontal surface is investigated. Assuming that the cylinder does not slip, energy conservation is used to study the motion in general. Points of returns, and small oscillations around equilibrium configuration are studied. As examples, cylinders are studied for which the cross section is an ellipse, with the center of mass at the center of the ellipse or at a focal point, and the frequencies of small oscillations around their equilibrium configurations are found. The conditions for losing contact or sliding are also investigated. Finally, the motion is studied in more detail for the case of a nearly circular cylinder.
