Tema 4

This document describes analyzing the angular motion of a disk oscillating in a circular trajectory using the 4th order Runge-Kutta method. The disk's parameters, equation of motion, and numerical solution using RK4 are provided. A Python program is developed to solve the equation of motion for different initial angular positions and plot the results. The program calculates the oscillation period for initial positions of 0.2π, 0.5π, and 0.8π, finding periods of 1.78s, 2.06s, and 2.88s respectively.

- It is desired to analyze the angular motion  ( t ) of a disk which oscillates in a circular trajectory as
shown in the figure. Consider the following characteristics for the system: r: 10 cm, R: 60 cm, M: 2.45
kg, and J: 122.5 kg cm2. It is desired to determine the period of oscillation with different values of
amplitude of oscillation. Implement the 4th order Runge-Kutta method to numerically solve the
following nonlinear 2nd order ordinary differential equation which represents the motion of the disk:

− 1 )2  + Mg ( R − r )sen = 0
R
M ( R − r )2  + J (
r

You can use any language of computer programming (Python, Visual Fortran or MatLab). You
have to include the source code of your program with enough comments to facilitate the evaluation, as
the appendix of your report.

To analyze your results, plot the angular position of the disk vs time, starting with different
initial positions.

Due: Friday Oct 13th. You must report the number of hours employed for this homework

This analysis help us to obtain a better approximation to the analysis, based on the calculation of 4
coefficients, which its transform in the average of 2 points, for this analysis a code were developed to
represent the oscillation of a disc in which the initial point can be changed in pi fractions, can be observed
that if the angle of the initial point are higher, the amplitude of the oscillation increases and the period,
decreases, this can be traduced in higher frequency of oscillations, it can be corroborated running the
code and varying the value of the angle from lowest to higher values, in this case particularly, the values
where 0.2 pi , 0.5 pi, and 0.8 pi, which give us periods of 1.78s , 2.06s and 2.88 s respectively.
