Examining the energy loss in the Inverted Pendulum Model for rocking bodies

Understanding of the mechanisms that may lead to failure of rocking bodies is of significant importance to quantifying and minimizing the associated risk. The most common model to describe the rocking problem is the Inverted Pendulum model (IPM) proposed by Housner in 1963, which has been followe...
