Appdynsys Spherical Pendulum Double

Summary

Spherical pendula, planar pendula, exhibit chaotic dynamics when coupled together. This Solving the equations of motion for the We explore why some mechanical systems exhibit chaos while others do not, even when they appear similar, and how symmetry ... What happens if, instead of shaking a Let's take a look at that same simulation of a Let's repeat the simulation of the (chaotic!) This is the exact same simulation as the previous we can simulate more than simply chains... here's a compound let's see what happens when we simulate a Here we use Lagrangian Mechanics to find the equation of motion for a If we change the type of joint on a What is chaotic dynamics? One of the hallmarks of chaos is something called SDIC = sensitive dependence on initial conditions.
