Motivation & Background

• Simple system, chaotic motion

• Chaos: small Δinitial large Δ➔ final

• Exponential separation characterized by Lyapunov Exponent

Two Modes of Attack

Simulation

• MATLAB generated

• Runge-Kutta Method

• No Friction

Physical Pendulum

• Double-bar pendulum

• Released from high angle

• Circular dots for tracking

• Casio EX-F1 at ~5 feet

• 600 fps analyzed in MATLAB

Lyapunov Exponent

• 4 parameters: θ,Φ, δθ, δΦ

• |δZ(t)|≈|δZ(t0)|eλt

• At least 1 positive to show chaotic behavior

• Rosenstein Method

• Nearest Neighbors

• Temporal Separation
