An n-Link Inverted Pendulum Modeling

Alexander Gmiterko, Martin Grossman

In this article is the automatized procedure for deriving of n-link inverted pendulum motion equations presented. Example of 2 link inverted pendulum is included. The LQR algorithm using Maple input equations is proposed. Also the comparison between SimMechanics and Simulink is included.

Keywords: pendulum, n-link, Maple, Simulink, chaos, SimMechanics
