The paper develops a method for studying the orbital evolution of a zero-mass point under the gravitational effect of a system of material points moving in almost-coplanar slightly elliptical orbits with respect to the central body. It is assumed that the masses of the perturbing points are small in comparison with the central mass, and that their orbits evolve slowly under the effect of mutual attraction. The perturbing effect of the points is approximated by the attraction of a system of material Gaussian rings. A representation is obtained for the force function of this system for small eccentricities and inclinations of the orbits of the perturbing points. Both the averaging and the solution of the averaged equations in osculating elements are executed numerically. Examples of the calculation of the orbital-element perturbations of certain asteroids over 10,000-100,000 years are presented.
