In this work we have tried to create an inverted pendulum using standard PC hardware. The pendulum in this project has been mounted onto a printer. A serial mouse serves as an angle sensor. The software controller has been implemented bare metal using a common micro controller architecture.

We study a nonlinear problem of pendulum-type for a p-Laplacian with nonlinear periodic-type boundary conditions. Using an extension of Mawhin’s continuation theorem for nonlinear operators, we prove the existence of a solution under a LandesmanLazer type condition. Moreover, using the method of upper and lower solutions, we generalize a celebrated result by Castro for the classical pendulum eq...

We study the thermal-noise spectrum of multi-loop pendulum suspensions for test masses in interferometric gravitational-wave detectors. The dependence of the thermal noise on suspension parameters and on properties of the wire material is discussed for the situation in which the losses are dominated by the internal friction in the pendulum wires.
