Mockup by Brian Berrett demonstrates purely random movement stemming from a simple pendulum on a lever, with no load or restraint on the lever, other than simple friction in its pivot action. The pendulum is made via a weight at the bottom of a bicycle wheel, whose axle is attached to a metallic frame that comprises the lever aspect. Brian says that this is one action that mathematicians have not been able to predict through any kind of formula.

  • @ninjaphysics Still, the randomness of any system describes how chaotic the system is. Dont quote wikipedia to people on the inter-net . You look like a naive school-kid.

  • @Culturealimprovement

    From the article on Chaos Theory in Wikipedia

    ..Small differences in initial conditions (such as those due to rounding errors in numerical computation) yield widely diverging outcomes for chaotic systems, rendering long-term prediction impossible in general.[1] This happens even though these systems are deterministic, meaning that their future behavior is fully determined by their initial conditions, with no random elements involved...

  • @ninjaphysics Actually it does.

  • chaos does NOT equal randomness.

  • give me back my 6 second

  • Manque d'interet, En 6 secondes on ne voit rien du tout.

  • 6 secons is a very little demonstration...

    Make a bigger fim for us!

  • it only appears random

  • Any two coupled 'oscillating' systems will produce a 'random' effect, unless they are perfectly tuned in harmony. Of note, is that tuned systems tend to reinforce each other, and maintain oscillations or reciprocating action, for much longer.

  • This thing will have a very high efficiency!

    You should keep on completeing it :)
