Design of an LQG controller for two inverted pendulums Objective: The objective of this paper is to design linear quadratic controllers for a system with two inverted pendulums on 2-d Plane. To this goal‚ it has to be determined which control strategy delivers better performance with respect to pendulum’s angle and the cart’s position. The inverted pendulums represents a challenging control problem‚ since it continually moves toward

Ballistic Pendulum Lab Objective: Determine the velocity of the projectile as it reaches the pendulum. Hypothesis: Firstly‚ we guess that the outcome of the velocity of the projectile is 6.3 meters per second [left].The formulas we use to find the final velocity of the projectile are Trigonometry‚ Kinetic and Potential Energy‚ and Momentum. Mass of the pendulum = 80.0g Mass of the ball = 7.64g Length of the string = 21cm Equipment: Ballistic pendulum device Metal
