The change of the plane of oscillation of a Foucault pendulum is calculated without using equations of motion, the Gauss-Bonnet theorem, parallel transport, or assumptions that are difficult to explain.

This paper presents a general formulation of equations of motion of a pendulum with n point mass by use of two different methods. The first one is obtained by using Lagrange Mechanics and mathematical induction(inspection), and the second one is deri
ved by defining a vector. Today, these equations can be obtained by employing numerous programs; however, this study gives a very compact form of these equations that is more efficient than solving Euler-Lagrange Equations for every pendulum with more complex structures than simple or double pendulum. Additionally, we investigate what will happen to our n-point mass system when we take limit as number of point masses goes infinity under well-defined assumptions. We find out that it converges to hanging rope system.
In this paper, we explore the stability of an inverted pendulum under a generalized parametric excitation described by a superposition of $N$ cosines with different amplitudes and frequencies, based on a simple stability condition that does not requi
re any use of Lyapunov exponent, for example. Our analysis is separated in 3 different cases: $N=1$, $N=2$, and $N$ very large. Our results were obtained via numerical simulations by fourth-order Runge Kutta integration of the non-linear equations. We also calculate the effective potential also for $N>2$. We show then that numerical integrations recover a wider region of stability that are not captured by the (approximated) analytical method. We also analyze stochastic stabilization here: firstly, we look the effects of external noise in the stability diagram by enlarging the variance, and secondly, when $N$ is large, we rescale the amplitude by showing that the diagrams for time survival of the inverted pendulum resembles the exact case for $N=1$. Finally, we find numerically the optimal number of cosines corresponding to the maximal survival probability of the pendulum.
The analytical solution of the three--dimensional linear pendulum in a rotating frame of reference is obtained, including Coriolis and centrifugal accelerations, and expressed in terms of initial conditions. This result offers the possibility of trea
ting Foucault and Bravais pendula as trajectories of the very same system of equations, each of them with particular initial conditions. We compare with the common two--dimensional approximations in textbooks. A previously unnoticed pattern in the three--dimensional Foucault pendulum attractor is presented.
In order to elucidate the process underpinning the apparently counterintuitive phenomena observed in the freefall experiments conducted by E. Hamm and J. Geminard [Amer. J. Phys. 78, 828 (2010)], we construct a simple dynamical model of a vertically
falling train of one-dimensional rigid segments impinging onto an inelastic horizontal plate in three-dimensional space. Numerically integrating the nonlinear governing equations, we obtain a robust result that the train of rigid segments falls virtually faster than freefall under gravity. The presented model reproduces the coiling spontaneously formed in the pile, which is considered to be a key mechanism of the phenomenon and is shown to be a consequence of the three-dimensional spiral structure that arises due to dissipative locking in mid-air. As one of mechanical keys underpinning the apparently counterintuitive phenomena, we will here focus the downward tensile force exerted by the pile.
We assess Coarse Graining by studying different partitions of the phase space of the Baker transformation and the periodic torus automorphisms. It turns out that the shape of autocorrelation functions for the Baker transformation is more or less repr
oduced. However, for certain partitions the decay rates turn out to be irrelevant, even decay may stop in a finite time. For the periodic torus automorphisms, Coarse Graining introduces artificial dumping.
