I think starting from a state of non-equilibrium would pose some issues. The initial conditions would be no longer be ##Q_1, Q_2,Q = 0 ## nor would the initial flow accelerations be ## \dot Q_1, \dot Q_2 = 0 ##Juanda said:To set up the initial conditions ##(t=0)## I'd prefer to start the system from an equilibrium point. I feel like it's not necessary but I think it's convenient because it's more realistic and the oscillatory nature of the result will be suppressed (or so I think).
