Description
Simulate the motion of nine different pendulum systems in real time on your phone. Use the simulation as a live wallpaper (to be set from device's settings).
Included systems: 1) Mathematical pendulum (2D): the simplest pendulum. 2) Pendulum wave effect (3D): when multiple pendulums are combined a peculiar wave effect appears. 3) Spherical pendulum (3D): a three-dimensional generalization of the mathematical pendulum. 4) Spring pendulum (2D): a mass connected to a spring. 5) Spring pendulum (3D): a mass connected to a spring in 3D. 6) Double pendulum (2D): the simplest example of a system which exhibits chaotic motion and is highly sensitive to the initial conditions. 7) Double spherical pendulum (3D): a three-dimensional generalization of the double pendulum. 8) Spring mathematical pendulum (2D): a rod attached to a spring. 9) Spring spherical pendulum (3D): a rod attached to a spring in 3D.
Features: - All simulations are performed in real time by numerically solving the Lagrange equations of motion. - Use the accelerometer of your device for dynamical determination of the gravity force. - Take into the account the friction force to see the damping of the pendulum motion (recommended when using sensor gravity). - Use your fingers to interactively change the positions of the pendulums. - Use pinch to zoom gesture. - All of the parameters for each system can be modified in the preferences.

This app is well done. Extremely accurate. Edit parameters like g, m, k, t (gravity, mass, spring constant, time)

I highly recommend this neet amd cool screen saver I look forward to meeting tje developer. 2 chat about tje possibilities true real time experience. Also, this sweet application. I noticed acts like a private bodyguard against sybet theft.

Brilliant! Is it reasonable to ask if you can add in triple and quadruple pendulums as well? Also, possibly the option to change the background color? Thank you for this app! It's great!

This is an INDISPENSABLE app for all students of physics, mechanics and oscillation. It is basically a laboratory where you can SEE what happens to pendulum systems when you vary the parameters. For example, you can change the initial conditions and actually observe how this effects the motion, or you can simulate the pendulum system of a problem you are working on. The app has a beautiful, user-friendly interface. Thank you very much Vol add for making this app available for free and without any ads. Best wishes for continued success.
