Possible sections for this article: I'll add to this article sometime soon. I am quite busy right now. That's a problem. Lyctc (talk) 03:20, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
 * comparison to simple pendulum, explanation of extra forces
 * listing a clear way of thinking about the mess of forces
 * mathematics behind describing it, lagrangian mechanics, forces
 * uses in real world? it seems as if it is a good exercise for programming
