ANIMATED COMPUTER GRAPHICS FOR THE STUDY OF MECHANICAL VIBRATIONS

Abstract

The paper presents a computer code developed by the authors for the study of the small oscillations of a system of two pendulums, coupled one to each other, as well as to the fixed element, with linear springs and with linear viscous dampers. The code has an advanced Windows interface.
