Melnikov’s Method Applied to the Double Pendulum

نویسنده

چکیده

Melnikov’s method is applied to the planar double pendulum proving it to be a chaotic system. The parameter space of the double pendulum is discussed, and the integrable cases are identified. In the neighborhood of the integrable case of two uncoupled pendulums Melnikov’s integral is evaluated using residue calculus. In the two limiting cases of one pendulum becoming a rotator or an oscillator, the parameter dependence of chaos, i. e. the width of the separatrix layer is analytically discussed. The results are compared with numerically computed Poincaré surfaces of section, and good agreement is found.

NORMAL 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...

Design of H-infinity Controller for A Linear Spring Connected Double Inverted Pendulum

A modified double inverted pendulum – modified by connecting the mass carrying the pendulum with another mass through a spring makes the general inverted pendulum become a more interesting problem. The system is defined as a linear spring connected double inverted pendulum as proposed by Hou et al. [1],[2]. The system is highly nonlinear and unstable. However, the system can be simplified to a ...

Transformation of Output Constraints in Optimal Control Applied to a Double Pendulum on a Cart

This paper describes a constraint transformation technique for optimal control problems (OCP) with nonlinear single-input single-output (SISO) systems subject to output constraints. An input-output transformation and saturation functions are used to transform the system dynamics into a new unconstrained representation. This method allows to reformulate the original OCP into an unconstrained cou...

Exponentially small oscillation of 2-dimensional stable and unstable manifolds in 4-dimensional symplectic mappings

Homoclinic bifurcation of 4-dimensional symplectic mappings is asymptotically studied. We construct the 2-dimensional stable and unstable manifolds near the submanifolds which experience exponentially small splitting, and successfully obtain exponentially small oscillating terms in the 2-dimensional manifolds. ∗ E-mail address: [email protected] 1 typeset using PTPTEX.sty <ver...
