Non-linear dynamics of a hanging rope

Two-dimensional motion of a hanging rope is considered. A multibody system with elastic-dissipative joints is used for modelling of the rope. The mathematical model based on the Lagrange formalism is presented. Results of some numerical simulations are shown for the mechanical system with kinematic...
