1- Double Pendulum Kinematics
double_pendulum.m has a script to plot the velocity over time and create an animation of the link positions. double_pendulum.ipynb shows the output of the code.
2- Rotating Pendulum Equations of motion
A pendulum is fixed to a rotating L-bracket, the solution to the rotating system is given in rotating pendulum solution
