This paper examines the bifurcation behavior of a planar pendulum subjected to high-frequency parametric excitation along a tilted angle. Analytical and numerical results show that small deviations from either a perfectly vertical or horizontal excitation will result in symmetry breaking bifurcations. This behavior is confirmed through a series of experimental tests. Additionally, a multiple scales analysis is used to obtain an approximate solution for the free oscillations of a viscously damped planar pendulum. System identification is performed by comparing the approximate solution to transient experimental data. Copyright © 2005 by ASME.
