Chaos Pendulum

Mathematics

★Exhibit Content: Chaos Theory ★Interaction: Mechanical Interaction ★Operation: Turn the handle and observe the irregular motion of the three small pendulums. ★Exhibit Description: The exhibit consists of a set of three freely moving pendulums, using the symmetry of pendulums and their motion laws to demonstrate the principle of chaos to the audience. After the audience gently pushes the T-shaped large pendulum, the three small pendulums at the vertices are driven and influence each other, each showing irregular motion states; swinging or rotating, thus achieving a chaotic state. ★Scientific Principle: When you rotate the T-shaped large pendulum, the three small pendulums at its ends swing accordingly, exhibiting irregular and complex motion. The study of such scientific problems is called chaos theory. Scientists have found through research that chaotic motion is a non-periodic and irreversible process, sensitive to initial values; a tiny disturbance can produce unexpected results, and long-term behavior is unpredictable. Besides many predictable systems in the world, there are also many unpredictable systems, namely chaotic systems, such as weather systems and stock markets.
