Abstract

The objectives of indirect observation programs are generally achieved with the help of a 'test body.' The pendulum is used as a test body of the gravitational field. The viability of the Newtonian pendulum model is affected by the lack of control, causality and other properties specific to a system. A pendulum-type oscilla tor is the physical system that has a cosine term in the potential energy formula, similar to the potential of a simple pendulum. Without optimizing the physic model, methods to approximate the equations of motion are used to describe the dynamics of the oscillators. The paper briefly presents the main stages used for optimizing the Pendulum-type oscillator at Rest. The analytical method allowed the adoption of models that were suc cessively verified experimentally. By applying creative methods and techniques, the pendulum-type oscillator model was synthesized by eliminating it contradictions. Both the analytical method and the tehnical creation methods used allowed for the adoption, for the purpose of experimental validation, of the complex pendulum -type oscillator composed of three subsystems, namely: S1 - the environment (electromagnetic) subsystem at the experiment location , S2- the actual (technical) instrument , S3 - the subsystem of predominant influence of celestial bodies ( and S4 - the disturbing celestial bodies rotating from east to west near the ecliptic area, etc.).In order to better highlight solutions for optimizing the pendulum-type oscillator, two research stages are undertaken, namely: the pendulum at rest and respectively the pendulum in mechano-electric oscillation. For stage 1, the main activities required by the epistemology of a viable experiment are presented. The research results materialized in a new model of the pendulum-type oscillator at rest, as well as a new paradigm for construction, data collection, and analysis of experimental results.
