This result offers the possibility of treating Foucault and Bravais pendula as trajectories of the same system of equations, each of them with particular initial conditions. We compare them with the common two-dimensional approximations in textbooks. A previously unnoticed pattern in the three-dimensional Foucault pendulum attractor is presented.", optnote="WOS:000320768100026", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=1518), last updated on Mon, 26 Aug 2013 12:31:18 +0000", issn="0143-0807", doi="10.1088/0143-0807/34/4/1049", opturl="http://arxiv.org/abs/1304.7922", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1088/0143-0807/34/4/1049", archivePrefix="arXiv", eprint="1304.7922", language="English" }
