Double Pendulum Simulation

Simulation of a simple double pendulum (not a Harmonograph / Blackburn pendulum) written in C++ using the SFML multimedia library.

Features

• Configurable via config.ini file
  • Rendering / Performance (anti-aliasing, framerate, etc.)
  • Simulation behavior (speed, gravity)
  • Initial conditions of each pendulum
  • Tracing of pendulum trajectory (lines/circles, color, etc.)

Example

    Pendulums doublePendulum;

    // while window is open, keep it open
    // this is the draw loop
    while ( window.isOpen() ) {
        window.clear( Color::Black );                  // clear old frame

        doublePendulum.drawEverything( window );       // draw double pendulum

        window.display();                              // present window

        doublePendulum.updateEverything();             // update pendulums
    }
