Dynamics of a complex mechanical pendulum : and its dependence on energy
In this thesis we analyze the motion of the double pendulum in which the first rod has a distributed mass and the second is a light rod with a linked spring attached to a point mass. The dynamics of the system is modelled in Maple using the Sophia package and Lagrangian mechanics. Trajectories, phas...
