In writing the equations of motion for a pendulum supported by a string having a length ι at any point with a northern latitude φ, we take the system of rectangular coordinate axes ξ, η, ζ which are fixed in the Earth and moving with it. The ξ axis is tangent to the meridian at that point due south and the η axis is tangent at the same point to a parrallel circle toward the east while the ζ axis has the radial direction vertically upwards. Keeping in mind the direction of the Coriolis accelaration, the differential equations of relative motion of a pendulum derived by Foucault become・・・[the rest omitted]}, pages = {1--19}, title = {旋回ジブクレーンつり荷重と地球自転の振り子(第1報) -振り子の運動方程式とその運動軌道-}, volume = {21}, year = {1979} }
