Keywords: Pendulum; Mass-Spring System; Experimental model; Theoretical model; Prototype design; MATLAB;

Abstract: The main objective of this master thesis is to study a pendulum system. This thesis was placed within a project which is a research for the improvement of the wave power generation energy system. The thesis consisted of modelling, simulation and experimental work. The dynamic behaviour of the studied system was simulated in MATLAB and a suitable test rig was designed and built during the thesis work. Finally, the experimental data were used to validate the theoretical models.
