LAGRANGE'S EQUATIONS
Let 𝒙𝟏 , 𝒙𝟐 , 𝒙𝟑 … , 𝒙𝒏 be a set of generalized coordinates for an 𝒏-degree-of-freedom system. The motion of the
system is governed by a set of 𝒏 ordinary differential equtions with the generalized coordinates as the dependent
variables and time as the independent variable. One method of deriving the differential equations, referred to as the
free body diagram method, involves applying conservation laws to free body diagrams of the system drawn at an
arbitrary instant.
An energy method provides an alternative to derive the differential equations governing the vibrations of a multi-
degree-of-freedom system. Let 𝑽(𝒙𝟏 , 𝒙𝟐 , … , 𝒙𝒏 ) be the potential energy of the system at an arbitrary instant. Let
𝑻(𝒙𝟏 , 𝒙𝟐 , … , 𝒙𝒏 , 𝒙˙𝟏 , 𝒙˙𝟐 , … , 𝒙˙𝒏 ) be the kinetic energy of the system at the same arbitrary instant. The lagrangian
𝑳(𝒙𝟏 , 𝒙𝟐 , … , 𝒙𝒏 , 𝒙˙𝟏 , 𝒙˙𝟐 , … , 𝒙˙𝒏 ) is defined as
𝑳=𝑻−𝑽
The lagrangian is viewed as a function of 𝟐𝒏 independent variables, with the time derivatives of the generalized
coordinates assumed to be independent of the generalized coordinates.
Let 𝜹𝒙𝟏 , 𝜹𝒙𝟐 , … , 𝜹𝒙𝒏 be variations of the generalized coordinates. The virtual work 𝜹𝑾 done by the
nonconservative forces in the system due to the variations of the generalized coordinates can be written as

Application of Lagrange's equations leads to a set of 𝒏 independent differential equations.
If the variations 𝛿𝑥 and 𝛿𝜃 are introduced at an arbitary instant, the work done by the viscous
damping forces is
𝛿𝑊 = −𝑐𝑥˙𝛿𝑥 − 𝑐(𝑥˙ + 𝐿𝜃˙)𝛿(𝑥 + 𝐿𝜃)

3. Use Lagrange's Equations to derive the equations of motion for the double
pendulum. Use the angular displacements 𝜃1 and 𝜃2 as the generalized
coordinates for this two degree of freedom system.
𝑥1 = 𝐿1 sin 𝜃1 , 𝑦1 = 𝐿1 cos 𝜃1

𝑥2 = 𝐿1 sin 𝜃1 + 𝐿2 sin 𝜃2 , 𝑦2 = 𝐿1 cos 𝜃1 + 𝐿2 cos 𝜃2

𝒲 (𝑁𝐶) = 𝑄1 𝛿𝜃1 + 𝑄2 𝛿𝜃2 = (𝐹1 + 𝐹2 )𝐿1 cos 𝜃1 𝛿𝜃1 + 𝐹2 𝐿2 cos 𝜃2 𝛿𝜃2 (4)

Linearizing about 𝜃1 = 𝜃2 = 0 and putting the resulting expressions in matrix form gives the governing
equation for small angle motion, (neglect higher order terms , cos 𝜃i ~1, sin 𝜃𝑖 ~𝜃𝑖

𝜃1 (𝑡) = 𝐴(1) cos (0.765√ 𝐿 − 𝜙1 ) + 𝐴(2) cos (1.85√𝐿 − 𝜙2 )
Hence,
𝑔 𝑔
𝜃2 (𝑡) = 𝐴(1) √2cos (0.765√ 𝐿 − 𝜙1 ) − 𝐴(2) √2cos (1.85√𝐿 − 𝜙2 )
The values of the amplitudes, 𝐴(1) and 𝐴(2) , and the phase angles, 𝜙1 and 𝜙2 , are found from the specific
initial conditions imposed on the system.
