Modeling a Three-Pendulum Harmonograph - Part #1 – by George Lungu
This first part of the presentation deals with
the movement equations of the three pendu-
lums.

Let’s describe the damped oscillation of the end of the first pendulum (point D)
(you can brush-up your knowledge by searching the keyword “Lissajous”):

Overall Amplitude
- The overall amplitude is not constant but will decrease exponentially in time
- The initial amplitude, damping coefficient, frequency, phase and phase
difference are all adjustable
- A phase difference of 0o will result in a straight line oscillation, a 90o in a circle
and in an ellipse for any angle in between

Modeling rigid pendulum 2-D oscillations:
- Let’s see some examples of how the trajectories might look like. Below there are the
oscillation equations of the first pendulum

Overall Amplitude
- Insert a worksheet named “Pendulum_Equations” and create a table of data: X(t) and
Y(t). After that, we save several parametric plots of data to see the effect of the oscillation
parameters on the shape of the pendulum trajectories.

- The overall amplitude is not constant but will decrease exponentially in time
- The initial amplitude, damping coefficient, frequency, phase and phase
difference are all adjustable
- A phase difference of 0o will result in a straight line oscillation, a 90o in a circle
and in an ellipse for any angle in between
