In this report we recall the famous Huygens' experiment which gave the first evidence of the
synchronization phenomenon. We consider the synchronization of two clocks which are …

The synchronization of coupled oscillators is a fascinating manifestation of self-organization
that nature uses to orchestrate essential processes of life, such as the beating of the heart …

Coupled systems that contain rotating elements are typical in physical, biological and
engineering applications and for years have been the subject of intensive studies. One …

In 1665, Huygens observed that two pendulum clocks hanging from the same board became
synchronized in antiphase after hundreds of swings. On the other hand, modern …

Two symmetrically coupled populations of N oscillators with inertia m display chaotic
solutions with broken symmetry similar to experimental observations with mechanical …

Various oscillatory phenomena occur in the world. Because some are associated with
abnormal states (eg epilepsy), it is important to establish ways to terminate oscillations by …

In this work, an indirect coupling used in a pair of simple autonomous discrete systems in
order to enhance the emergence of hyperchaos is presented. The peculiarity that the used …

In this article, a two-degree-of-freedom system consisting of two pendulums with magnets
embedded in a variable magnetic field is investigated experimentally and numerically …

Synchronization, as a unique phenomenon, has been extensively studied in biology, chaotic
systems, nonlinear dynamics, quantum information, and other fields. Benefiting from the …

We repeat Huygens' experiment using real pendulum clocks in the same way as it was done
originally, ie we hang two clocks on the same beam and observe the behavior of the …
