Numerical Analysis of the Dynamics of Single and Double Spring-Pendulum Systems

چکیده
In our investigation, we used Hamiltonian dynamics to model two different spring-pendulum systems in MATLAB. First, we confirmed that chaotic motion is possible in the classic single spring-pendulum system in two dimensions and without damping. Next, we modified the system by attaching the mass to two springs (Figure 1b) and tested to see how the dynamics change with the addition of this second spring to the system.

متن کاملNORMAL FORM SOLUTION OF REDUCED ORDER OSCILLATING SYSTEMS
This paper describes a preliminary investigation into the use of normal form theory for modelling large non-linear dynamical systems. Limit cycle oscillations are determined for simple two-degree-of-freedom double pendulum systems. The double pendulum system is reduced into its centre manifold before computing normal forms. Normal forms are obtained using a period averaging method which is appl...
متن کاملNumerical optimization of tuned mass absorbers attached to strongly nonlinear Duffing oscillator
We investigate the dynamics of the vertically forced Duffing oscillator with suspended tuned mass absorber. Three different types of tuned mass absorbers are taken into consideration, i.e., classical single pendulum, dual pendulum and pendulum-spring. We numerically adjust parameters of absorbers to obtain the best damping properties with the lowest mass of attached system. The modification of ...
متن کاملModeling and numerical simulation of the nonlinear dynamics of the parametrically forced string pendulum
The string pendulum consists of a mass attached to the end of an inextensible string which is fastened to a support. Applying an external forcing to the pendulum’s support is motivated by understanding the behavior of suspension bridges or of tethered structures during earthquakes. The forced string pendulum can go from taut to slack states and vice versa, and is capable of exhibiting interesti...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysis of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell
A full three-dimensional, single phase computational fluid dynamics model of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) with both the gas distribution flow channels and the Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA) has been developed. A single set of conservation equations which are valid for the flow channels, gas-diffusion electrodes, catalyst layers, and the membrane region are developed and numer...
