The motion of a spherical pendulum whose point of suspension performs high-frequency vertical harmonic oscillations of small amplitude is investigated. It is shown that two types of motion of the pendulum exist when it performs high-frequency oscillations close to conical motions, for which the pend

The problem of stabilizing the upper vertical (inverted) position of a pendulum using vibration of the suspension point is considered. The periodic function describing the vibrations of the suspension point is assumed to be arbitrary but possessing small amplitudes, and slight viscous damping is tak
We demonstrate that the excitation of noise-induced oscillations of a pendulum with a randomly vibrating suspension axis occurs via "on-off intermittency'. The dependence of the mean duration of 'laminar' phase on the excess of the noise intensity over a certain critical value is calculated analytic
