  2. Double pendulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_pendulum

    A double pendulum consists of two pendulums attached end to end.. In physics and mathematics, in the area of dynamical systems, a double pendulum, also known as a chaotic pendulum, is a pendulum with another pendulum attached to its end, forming a simple physical system that exhibits rich dynamic behavior with a strong sensitivity to initial conditions.

    A plot of the Lorenz attractor for values r = 28, σ = 10, b = ⁠ 8 / 3 ⁠ An animation of a double-rod pendulum at an intermediate energy showing chaotic behavior. Starting the pendulum from a slightly different initial condition would result in a vastly different trajectory. The double-rod pendulum is one of the simplest dynamical systems ...

    For the case of one-dimensional system with the boundary condition () = the density of states obtained from the Gutzwiller formula is related to the inverse of the potential of the classical system by / / = here () is the density of states and V(x) is the classical potential of the particle, the half derivative of the inverse of the potential ...

  6. Swinging Atwood's machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swinging_Atwood's_Machine

    The swinging Atwood's machine (SAM) is a mechanism that resembles a simple Atwood's machine except that one of the masses is allowed to swing in a two-dimensional plane, producing a dynamical system that is chaotic for some system parameters and initial conditions.

  7. Lorenz system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorenz_system

    The equations relate the properties of a two-dimensional fluid layer uniformly warmed from below and cooled from above. In particular, the equations describe the rate of change of three quantities with respect to time: x is proportional to the rate of convection, y to the horizontal temperature variation, and z to the vertical temperature ...

  8. Dynamical billiards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamical_billiards

    This implies that two and three-dimensional quantum billiards can be modelled by the classical resonance modes of a radar cavity of a given shape, thus opening a door to experimental verification. (The study of radar cavity modes must be limited to the transverse magnetic (TM) modes, as these are the ones obeying the Dirichlet boundary conditions).

  9. Dynamical system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamical_system

    In a linear system the phase space is the N-dimensional Euclidean space, so any point in phase space can be represented by a vector with N numbers. The analysis of linear systems is possible because they satisfy a superposition principle : if u ( t ) and w ( t ) satisfy the differential equation for the vector field (but not necessarily the ...
