After analysing the recent developments of the theory of the nutation for a simplified rigid Earth model (Kinoshita and Souchay, 1990) with new corrections and new contributions (Williams, 1994; Souchay and Kinoshita, 1996), we will study the effect of these developments on the calculation of the coefficients of nutation for a non rigid Earth model, based on the transfer function given by Wahr (1979). The relative improvements characterized by the residuals with the observations are explained in the following.
