چکیده
Student-Friendly Precision Pendulum Germany (latitude 52 N → 981,274) in the early part of this century. With the information provided in this article, students should be able to easily measure the gravitational field strength to a few parts in 10,000, a degree of precision one to two orders of magnitude better than can be achieved with the usual simple pendulum under comparable conditions. The instrument involved is a “simple,” slightly adjustable Kater pendulum.

Classical Double Inverted Pendulum – a Complex Overview of a System
The purpose of this article is to perform an indepth analysis of the classical double inverted pendulum system using the Inverted Pendula Modeling and Control (IPMaC), a Simulink block library designed by the authors of the paper. The custom function blocks included in the IPMaC offer comprehensive program support for the modeling, simulation and control of classical and rotary inverted pendula...
متن کاملRegular and Chaotic Motions of the Parametrically Forced Pendulum: Theory and Simulations
New types of regular and chaotic behaviour of the parametrically driven pendulum are discovered with the help of computer simulations. A simple qualitative physical explanation is suggested to the phenomenon of subharmonic resonances. An approximate quantitative theory based on the suggested approach is developed. The spectral composition of the subharmonic resonances is investigated quantitati...
متن کاملPainting chaos: OFLITT
In this paper we review briefly a recently developed chaos indicator: the OFLITT, or more friendly the OFLI2. Using this new indicator we present several sensitivity plots for several classical problems: the Hénon-Heiles Hamiltonian system and an Extensible Pendulum.
متن کاملSubharmonic resonances of the parametrically driven pendulum
A simple qualitative physical explanation is suggested for the phenomenon of subharmonic resonances of a rigid planar pendulum whose axis is forced to oscillate with a high frequency in the vertical direction. An approximate quantitative theory based on the suggested approach is developed. The spectral composition of the subharmonic resonances is investigated quantitatively, and the boundaries ...
متن کاملRobust explicit MPC design under finite precision arithmetic
We propose a design methodology for explicit Model Predictive Control (MPC) that guarantees hard constraint satisfaction in the presence of finite precision arithmetic errors. The implementation of complex digital control techniques, like MPC, is becoming increasingly adopted in embedded systems, where reduced precision computation techniques are embraced to achieve fast execution and low power...
