Abstract
Elementary physical systems are often used to model practical mechanical applications; notwithstanding, despite of their simplicity, they may present complex nonlinear behaviors. Within this context, it is worthwhile to deeply understand their dynamical features, in order to explore all the richness of possible responses inherent to nonlinear systems. This paper concerns the numerical analysis of a double pendulum, based upon basins of attraction that enables the distinction between rotating and non-rotating conditions.
