Generalized Mathematical Model of an Inverted Multilink Pendulum with Follower Force

  • Published:
International Applied Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

A problem formulation and differential equations are given to describe the plane-parallel motion of an inverted multilink pendulum with an asymmetric follower force acting at the elastically restrained upper end. The physical nonlinearities of the springs are taken into account. The possible mechanisms of energy dissipation are described
