Abstract

Vibrating and oscillation systems play an important task in physics and mathematics. In this paper, we investigated the dynamical behavior of an important system called the vibrating triangle (in some literature it is called the planar system). First of all, the Lagrangian equation of the system has been constructed. Secondly, we derived the Euler- Lagrange equations (ELEs). Thirdly, we solve the obtained ELEs numerically using MATLAB for some selected parameters, and for specified initial conditions.
