    Inverted Pendulum: Relating Force to Angle/Displacement

    Im considering a problem were an inverted pendulum is resting against a ledge an an angle theta from the horizontal. A force is applied to the end causing it to move, This force is dynamic and decrease as the angle increases. The critical point is when the pendulum passes the vertical and cannot...

    Calculating Euler phi function

    Yes i know the factorisation problem is hard. I am workin with RSA encryption so we know two large primes, the product of which is N this is what i want to do euler phi on. Since N is the product of two primes (p and q) is phi(N) simply (p-1)(q-1)?

    MATLAB Compute Euler Phi Function of Large Integer | Matlab Solution

    Ok thanks i'll have a go at it. I don't have PARI/GP but i mite try and download it, i generally use MATLAB cus it relativly easy. Its not a homework question, a lecture mentioned it and I am just trying to understand it! Thanks for your comments!

    Calculating Euler phi function

    How do i comput the euler phi function of a large interger? i know that if p is prime then phi(p)=p-1 and I've found a formula for computing non primes but i don't know how to implement in something like Matlab. Does anyone know how?

    How does friction affect a car's ability to turn at high speeds?

    Im trying to model a car going round a corner and the speed at which it will overturn (assuming no slip) Is it correct that when turning there are lateral friction forces that oppose the inertial 'centrifugal' force? i.e. towards the centre of curvature When the front (driving) wheel are...
