Routes to Chaos of a Vertically Rotating Pendulum

by S. Yip, Columbia Univ, New York, United States,

Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Engineering Mechanics

Abstract:

Each blade of a mechanical shredder may be modeled by a pendulum whose pivot rotates in a vertical circle. The transition to chaos of small periodic motion about radial lines us the driving speed of the pivot is reduced is investigated for several values of the system parameters.
