The parametrically excited pendulum and the criteria for predicting the onset of chaos
<p>A pendulum with its supporting point vibrating in both the x and the y direction is analyzed. Numerical simulation by computer is used to analyze the motion of the pendulum. Chaotic motion of the system is observed. Threshold values for chaos are obtained by simulation. The Lyapunov exponen...
