Inverted_pendulum_oscillatory_base.svg


Summary

Description
English: Plots illustrating the behaviour of an inverted pendulum mounted on an oscillatory base. The first plot shows the response of the pendulum on a slow oscillation ( ), the second the response on a fast oscillation ( ).

The motion of the pendulum is given by the the following differential equation
