Thanks, I will try to play a little around that.

What are the limitation of my simple method ? Why is it not working in this case ? or In what cases it is not working ? Because I have another example of a particle subjected to a centripetal force with an initial velocity. The trajectory is theoretically a circle and I have a spiral. I will try...

No I mean my pendulum is composed of 2 programming objects, a stick and a circle, and I am doing the calculation on the circle (on which I apply the forces and compute the new coordinates), and the circle is falling on my screen (y coordinate increases too fast). The swing movement seems to stay...

Hi all, I'm having some problems trying to simulate a pendulum in C++. I am using x,y coordinates (and not angular coordinates, velocity...) to use the same method than all other dynamics in my program which are: - Compute sum of all forces - a = sum(F) - v += a - position += v For the...
