> The double pendulum is not "unexplainable" or "inexplicable behavior", in fact is is explained very well in this very article. It just requires an infinite degree of precision if you desire to simulate it numerically with infinitesimal error. The interesting thing is, while the double pendulum does exhibit randomness, it would not appear to be ergodic. If you look at a plot of the double pendulum in phase space, it has some interesting structure. There exists stable regions of phase space which seem to imply non-trivial solutions. https://youtube.com/watch?v=gvck7ssg9dE&t=11m30s |
