Spatial Motion of Multi-Pendula Systems
J. S. Prichani | T. W. Sakwa | N. O. Ongati
Abstract: A multiple chain pendula system constrained to move in space has been studied within the framework of a generalized coordinate system by using the Lagrangian formalism. Equations of motions for many body pendula systems have been derived. These equations concur very well with known data. We confirm that equations of motion for any values of n and l can be generated from our general equation which presents interesting characteristics. Solutions to these multi-pendula equations could be deduced.
