Damp and Driven Swingers

Read Original

This article continues a blog theme on fractals and spirals by examining the damped and driven oscillator, specifically a pendulum. It derives the equations of motion using torque and Newton's law, discusses the small-angle approximation, and then introduces phase space analysis (θ, θ˙) to solve the differential equations without approximation. The content is technical, involving physics and mathematical modeling, likely with Matlab implementations, making it relevant to IT/TECHNOLOGY through scientific computing and simulation.
