This system has 3 generalized coordinates : displacement of the spring , deflection angle of the (spring-)pendulum , and translation of the support.
Hence it's described by 3x 2nd order nonlinear ODE's and matlab has to solve 6x linearized 1st order ODE's .
Since the equations are rather complex , they're not stated here in this description. The .zip contains a .mp4 file of the animation.
