  • The Pendulumby Michael R. Matthews; Colin F. Gauld; Arthur Stinner

    Springer 2006; US$ 289.00

    An anthology that deals with the science, history, methodology and pedagogy of pendulum motion. This work contains material for the cross-disciplinary treatment of the pendulum from elementary school to high school to university classes. It provides an awareness of the importance of the pendulum in the foundation and development of modern science. more...

  • Accurate Clock Pendulumsby Robert J. Matthys

    Oxford University Press, UK 2004; US$ 145.00

    Almost all of a pendulum clock's accuracy resides in its pendulum. If the pendulum is accurate, the clock will be accurate. In this book, the author describes how to make a more accurate pendulum or pendulum clock. All scientific aspects of the pendulum design and operation are explained in simple terms and backed up with experimental data. - ;The Shortt clock, made in the 1920s, is the most famous accurate clock pendulum ever known, having an accuracy of one second per year when kept at nearly constant temperature. Almost all of a pendulum clock's accuracy resides in its pendulum. If the pendulum is accurate, the clock will be accurate. In this book, the author describes many scientific aspects of pendulum design and operation in simple... more...

  • The Chaotic Pendulumby Moshe Gitterman

    World Scientific 2010; US$ 88.00

    Pendulum is the simplest nonlinear system, which, however, provides the means for the description of different phenomena in Nature that occur in physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, communications, economics and sociology. The chaotic behavior of pendulum is usually associated with the random force acting on a pendulum (Brownian motion). Another type of chaotic motion (deterministic chaos) occurs in nonlinear systems with only few degrees of freedom. This book presents a comprehensive description of these phenomena going on in underdamped and overdamped pendula subject to additive and multiplicative periodic and random forces. No preliminary knowledge, such as complex mathematical or numerical methods, is required from a reader other than... more...
