Figure 5.4: Equilibrium points for an inverted pendulum. An inverted pendulum is a model for a class of balance systems in which we wish to keep a system upright, such as a rocket (a). Using a simplified model of an inverted pendulum (b), we can develop a phase portrait that shows the dynamics of the system (c). The system has multiple equilibrium points, marked by the solid dots along the x2 = 0 line.
