Fig. 4.
Smooth evolutions of the eccentricity and the inclination coming from two different simulations. On the left, the eccentricity of Iapetus growths smoothly after both satellites enter the resonance, while the tilt stays constant. The right figure depicts the evolution of the inclination with respect to the Laplace plane. For this simulation, the eccentricity does not change.
