Matlab files of chaotic double pendulum

 

Measurements (zipped folders, each contains a set of measurements and the matlab programs):

     M1     M2      M3

After unzipping these files open your Matlab software, change directory to one of these folders and start Matlab program "chaos".

In the first set of figures you can see four chaotic double pendulum trajectories with very similar starting position.

In the next set of figures vertical positions in function of time and the Fourier transforms of these functions are plotted. The solid lines related to the small, the dotted lines to the large arm.

In the third set of figures the angular velocity and its integral are plotted as vs. time for the small and the large arm of the pendulum.
