The present article addresses the quantification of damping in a parametric pendulum, with a view on further applications in the design of energy harvesting devices. Detailed new experimental data is obtained for such ...

Damped oscillatory motion is one of the most widely studied movements in physics courses. Despite this fact, dry damped oscillatory motion is not commonly discussed in physics textbooks. In this work, we discuss the dry ...

The frictional force of the physical damped pendulum with the medium is usually assumed proportional to the pendulum velocity. In this work, we investigate how the pendulum motion will be affected when the drag force is ...
