Okay, so I was totally off before but I think I at least know what's going on now. I am pretty sure this problem will require euler's equations of 3D motion.
So the plate seems to rotate about the fixed points A and B. I will choose A as my origin. I then can make my inertial matrix for the...

Thank you very much for your response!
Okay so essentially increasing the temperature will elongate the shafts. I need to find the temperature when the combined length increase is d[m].
For AB \delta_1 = \alpha_1 (T_2 - T_1)L_AB
For CD \delta_2 = \alpha_2 (T_2 - T_1)L_CD
I set the...
