Stability of the stationary motion of a double pendulum interacting with a string

  • Published:
International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

The equation of in-plane vertical motion of a double pendulum suspended at some point of a horizontal elastic string is derived using a hybrid model of this mechanical system. The conditions for the asymptotic stability of the stationary motion of the pendulum interacting with the string are established
