AdAnxious8842 on October 4, 2024 8:55 pm Gotta love physics. Might not understand it but it is a thing of beauty! A couple of fascinating links on the subject: [Wikipedia article](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_pendulum) with almost a full screen of Lagrangian calculations. Damn impressive. [MIT page](https://web.mit.edu/jorloff/www/chaosTalk/double-pendulum/double-pendulum-en.html) where you can simulate what he did and a lot more.

My life is a double pendulum

I suppose I’m a double pendulum; given a big kick.

Chaotic phase looks like me at a Phish concert.
